6/9/15 6-foot-3, 234-pound strong build. On the mound the southpaw has a strong lower half with a slow tempo delivery. Hides the ball well on his lift. From a loose, 3/4 slot his fastball sits 83-85 mph with natural run. Spins a 2/8 curveball with gradual break at 68-69 mph. Showcased a solid changeup at 74 mph with good arm speed and some fade to it.
7/29/14 Big 6-foot-3, 234-pound body frame. Left-handed hitter starts from a balanced set up, uses a fluid hands back to shoulder trigger, has strength and pop. Reached a top exit velocity of 86 mph and ran a 4.86 out of the box. On the mound the lefty Turns himself back slightly to produce torque, uses a shorter arm action with average armspeed through a ¾ slot coming from his ear. His fastball was at 80-83 mph. Slider showed depth at 1/7 tilt with 72-73 mph velocity. Curveball was thrown at 69-71 mph with similar action as curveball but with more depth. He threw his changeup with fastball armspeed at 72 mph, has a tendency to choke the pitch at times.
6/2/14 6-foot-3, 234-pound two-way prospect. On the mound, he throws from 3/4 slot with average arm speed. Fastball sat 81-82 mph with occasional cut. Breaking ball showed some bite with 2/8 action at 70-72 mph. Mixed in a softer 66 mph CB as well as a 74 mph changeup. Average hands and feet around the bag at first base. Offensively, he starts from an open stance. Long stride. Tendency to spin off. Pull type swing. Top exit velocity of 86 mph. Ran a 7.94 60.
7/29/13 6-foot-3, 238-pound southpaw with big, soft frame. Shows good potential for the future as he matures physically. Throws with regular effort through high ¾ slot. Shows some quickness in his arm. Tends to sit on his backside in his delivery. Velocity should pick up as he gets moving quicker to the plate with the lower half. Fastball shows excellent, natural cut at 80-82 mph. Consistently induced bad swings from hitters due to late cutting action. Threw a 70 mph breaking ball with 1/7 action as well as a 68 mph changeup. Definite follow.
