2/19/12 Prescott is a 6-foot-1, 175-pound two-way player who showed well on the mound and impressed with his left-handed swing. On the mound, Prescott commanded the zone with four pitches, and all with movement. He works from a high 3/4 arm slot and has a short back arm action. His fastball topped at 82 mph, while his cutter sat in the 77-79 range. Prescott also filled up the zone with a 69-71 mph changeup, which exhibited sink, and a 63-65 mph curveball. Prescott hides the ball well, and with his short arm action and funk in his delivery, he should give hitters fits. Offensively, Prescott has a solid left-handed swing with good extension and whip through the zone. A line drive hitter, Prescott took an impressive round of BP in which he squared the baseball up with consistent authority.
