I think they said other than not having as good of stuff
He has a lot in common with Lincecum (also probably not as big of a druggie).
If he ends up being successful in the minors, I think the solution to me would be to limit his innings at first, let him build some more strength and endurance slowly, and see how that is handled. As we’re seeing with Lincecum right now, his body just isn’t able to handle the workload he’s been given.

That said
I’m interested to see who comes out of Helena as a legit prospect this year, since it seems like most of our top picks there are having a fairly good amount of success so far (which you always hope for).
Cody Hawn, Matt Miller, and Thornburg have been putting up some nice numbers early.

maybe thornburg has a #3 potential. at least a #5. he might have a higher ceiling than that
according to Projectprospect:
While Charleston Southern University isn’t a historic hotbed of scouting, that has changed thanks to righthanded pitcher Tyler Thornburg. A two-way star for the Buccaneers – who leads the team in home runs – Thornburg can run his fastball up to 95 MPH and compliments his good heater with a changeup and curveball, each of which rate as above-average offerings. Thornburg is able to generate big-league stuff from his 5-foot-11, 190 pound frame thanks to Lincecum style mechanics, generating good leg drive and coming from a high, over-the-top arm angle. Thornburg is still a bit of sleeper and not seen as a first round pick by most, but wherever he does get selected in June he could yield first-round value.
