The only info I found...
said that he was released by Detroit early last year.  He had been pitching for their Toledo club.

hes the guy
that we drafted ahead of Todd Helton right...? lol, i know i know you cant second guess the draft, but its sad now. I'd take a risk on him. But i'd prefer Scott Schoenweiss.

1995 draft
Prieto was the A's pick with the 5th pick of the 1995 draft, the Rockies used the 8th pick to select Helton.

Yep
Prieto was considered a can't miss pitcher. Remember, Ariel defected from Cuba and it was only through poor planning (on his part and that of his American contact) that he became draft eligible.

Oops on more than one front.

re Prieto
I'm not sure why we need a guy who has never pitched a good major league season, when we already have Seth Etherton. Meeoww.
