Brendon
Little

3/30/15 Lively fastball that sat 92-93 in his first inning of work on the season. Was 90-92 in the second inning and 88-90 in the third (after a long layoff due to a nine-run half inning from his offense). Pitch was fairly straight at the higher velo, but had late tail on the lower end of the spectrum. Was around the zone during his outing, although had a tendency to live above the belt. Sharp curveball at 77-79 got a number of swing-and-misses and should be an above average offering at the next level. 3 IP, 0 H, 3 BB, 1 HBP, 9 K.

8/24/14 Little worked 87-89 and touched 90 during his two innings. A sharp curveball is typically the North Carolina recruit's go-to secondary offering but, he seemed to favor a changeup on Saturday that had sink and fade action even when he slowed his body to throw it. Little (listed at 6-foot-2, 200-pounds) lands on a stiff front leg and gets downhill well from the wind-up. He had some trouble getting over his front side in the stretch and his command suffered a bit as a result.

6/13/14 Little worked 89-91 touching 92 a half dozen times during the course of the 4A state title game. Little's 1/7 curveball showed two plane action at times biting in on right-handed hitters back knee.

3/27/14 Little worked 85-87 and touched 89, while getting downhill well from his over-the-top slot. He threw one FB at 84 that cut, but it's unclear if that was intentional or he just got around it (it was the only FB with cut action he threw to any of the seven hitters he faced). He also featured a solid CB at 70-73.
