1.11.15 - 6-foot, 170-pound athletic built, fast-twitch RHP/OF ranked No. 259 in Illinois, hits from a balanced, athletic setup, short stride, above average bat speed, flat path, weak top hand in finish, 76 mph exit velocity. Defensively, impressed with plus arm strength and carry from the outfield, 92 mph from long, loose, high ¾ arm slot. On the mound, Martin’s arm strength from the outfield currently doesn’t transfer as he doesn’t incorporate lower half aggressiveness in his delivery. Fastball sat 79-82 mph from quick, loose, high ¾ slot, but it’s all arm. Lands closed at foot strike, shoulders work laterally, cuts off finish. Also showed a 68-70 mph curveball that was better from the stretch. 72-76 mph occasionally flashed plus sinking action. Martin is intriguing on the mound with a high ceiling if he can incorporate the aggressiveness of his crow hop throws into his pitching delivery.
