Yankees draft ambidextrous pitcher Pat Venditte again

The Yankees originally drafted LHP/RHP Pat Venditte out of Creighton University last year in the 45th round. He opted to return to college, and the Yankees drafted him again today in the 20th round. Obviously the Yankees really like him, and perhaps they'll be even more aggressive in trying to sign him this time around.

When Venditte throws right-handed, he has an over-the-top delivery and throws an average curve and 88-91 mph fastball. From the left side, he throws side-armed style and has a slider and low 80's fastball. Aside from having a constant advantage over hitters, he is able to pitch longer than the average pitcher because the burden is shared between two arms. Seems like an exciting pick by the Yankees.

So far, I've spoken with Bittle, Corban Joseph and Matt Richardson. I'm waiting on David Phelps (14) to call me back.

Update- Check out the video on Venditte:
