Cantleberry is a projectable southpaw that saw his stock increase over the summer season. The 6-foot, 180 pounder played in June's Top Prospect Games at Indiana University where he displayed athleticism with a loose, easy delivery. He pitches from a 3/4 slot with good downhill plane on his fastball. At the Top Prospect Games his fastball sat 82-84 with good command, and it was easy to project a velocity increase in the near future. As the summer went on the fastball velocity did jump, sitting more 85-86 and even popping an 88. He throws a serviceable breaking ball in the low 70's with gradual break.
