6-foot-2, 210-pound RHP showed very much the same as we saw him at our last event that he attended this past summer, begins from a staggered and crouched stance on the rubber, throws exclusively out of the stretch and uses a unique delivery to throw the hitters off, front leg goes straight into his stride as he slightly stands up during his approach to the plate, jerky and sidearm release point, usually finishes balanced. Fastball showed run that is sometimes very hard with good sink, curveball had sweeping 10/4 shape through the zone. Recorded 2 strikeouts and allowed a single in game play.
6-foot-2, 215-pound RHP uses a very low/crouched (somewhat awkward) setup from the stretch only but it works for him, sidearm pitcher, fastball shows good run and sink and helps him miss barrels, curveball was effective when he didn’t get under it with sweeping 10/4 action and produced a few swings and misses, threw one changeup that mimicked the fastball with good velocity difference, worked two hitless innings recording all infield outs. Wheeler could be a very effective pitcher out of the bullpen at the next level.
