Ross
Massey

A 5-foot-11, 175 pound left-hander from Baton Rouge, Massey has been a highly successful high school pitcher. The brother of current Green Wave pitcher, Alex Massey, Ross helped lead Catholic (BR) to a state championship in 2013. A strike thrower that pitches 83-85 mph, running it up to 87 with occasional life. Loose, clean arm action out of a high-3/4 release, little effort with an athletic repeatable delivery. Breaking ball has 11/5 shape at 68-70, decent depth and has shown the ability to throw it for strikes. Flashes a changeup that may develop into a quality third pitch at the next level. Competitive left-hander that tends to find ways to help his team win, if the upward trend of his velocity and stuff continues he could be nice get for the Green Wave.
