    Here are the most-recent updated velo readings from Cubs pitchers in the AFL:

    Scott Effross, RHRP:
    FB: 91-92 T 93
    SL: 80-83
    NOTE: Only question about Effross off his AFL outings is whether he will be placed on the AAA or AA reserve llst for Rule 5 Draft. Other than being able to throw multiple innings, there isn't really a whole lot to like about what Effross has to offer, so I'm not so sure he won't be placed on the AA reserve list and be eligible for selection in the AAA Phase ($24,000 draft price with no right to re-claim).
