Mason Miller LHP / 1B / James W. Mitchell, FL / 2020Rankings State Rank:43 POS:7
01/21/17- The 6-foot-2, 175-pound LHP/1B has long limbs and lean frame with plenty of room to fill out. On the mound, he has a short arm swing releasing out of a ¾ slot. Fastball was 75-78 mph, but he can really pitch, and will make a jump with added strength and innings which will make him a player to watch. Curveball took 2/8 shape at 63-64 mph and was very tight and overall a good pitch. Also threw a changeup at 70 mph. Lanky and tall with a baby face. Offensively, the left handed hitter shows an opposite field approach with a feel for the barrel. There is some length and steepness, but still generated an exit velocity of 80 mph. Overall, shows potential on both sides of the ball, but will be very interesting to see how big of a jump he makes on the mound as he continues to log innings. |
