Scouting Report

6/8/22
Pitching: On this day worked up tempo with intent on a high spin, FB / SL mix. The arm is live with the FB sitting 85-87 MPH, spin rate was between 2000 - 2323 RPM for a max spin score up to 27 flashing advanced life through the zone. Jacob spun the slider at 76 -80 MPH with the spin getting up to 2700. Paired with a horizontal break of up to 10" the SL has the makings of a swing and miss out pitch as it becomes more consistent at the release. Plenty more in the tank as the lower half gets more efficient through the delivery. Will be a intriguing follow in the coming year.
