ESPN Chat with Jim Callis

JAYPERS (IL)
During yesterday's Rockies chat, Tracy Ringolsby made a pretty bold statement when he said Tyler Matzek's development was ahead of Kershaw's "in all areas". I'd like to get a second opinion. Thanks.

J.P. is referring to the Rockies chat we had at baseballamerica.com . . . That is bold. Kershaw was just as highly regarded coming out of the draft. Matzek finished strong in the CIF playoffs, but I think Kershaw showed slightly better stuff over the course of his high school senior year.
