Scouting Report
One quality that is undeniable about Sudano is that he is a gamer who loves to play the game. He continues to show great progress and play with more confidence each time we see him. The OF prospect showed an improved 60-yard dash time; checking in at 6.82 at the Unsigned Senior Showcase. Sudano hit from a slightly more opened stance and showed that he could spray line drives all over the field in batting practice. He has consistently improved his barrel control and the ability to recognize and handle off-speed pitches. He threw 81 miles-per-hour from the outfield and has the intangible instincts to play any of the three outfield positions.
This was my first impression of Sudano on the mound and he showed quite well. He pitched exclusively from the stretch with solid tempo and direction. He has a clean, whippy arm action and has great lay back. Pitching between a ¾ and high ¾ arm slot, Sudano is still a bit raw in some aspects. He showed firm command of glove side down with his 77-79 (81) mile-per-hour fastball and also displayed a sweeping 66-69 MPH slider.
