SCOUTING REPORT
Extra lanky, standing 6-foot-4, 200-pounds the RHP shows above average stuff. Fastball sits 90-93 with an easy delivery. CH sits 77-78 but straight with little depth. Good arm speed with plenty of room to improve, also has an above average 12-6 breaking ball. Intriguing player to me and could see this kid as a draft candidate this upcoming spring with a ton of size and strength adding some serious pounds this off-season.
