SCOUTING REPORT
Boyle has premium size standing 6-foot-3, 185-pounds with signs of more physically gains to come. He uses a quick rhythm to his delivery, high knee lift with set around his upper chest area. He shows above average hip mobility has he drives forward before release. Arm action is back and high, slightly choppy but does get full extension out in front, releases from a high 3/4 slot. Fastball jumps at 82-84 mph (up six mph since OCT) with some late depth, two-seam really dives arm side, releases that pitch from a slightly lower 3/4 slot. Curveball has above average 11/5 shape sitting 69-70, change-up is firm in the upper 70's on one plane. Overall, very excited about Boyle's future. He's gained 20-pounds since Oct. and looks more physical. Cleaning up his arm-action on the back will only help.
WHAT DID WE SEE?
"Obvious physical gains in a short span by growing an inch and adding 20 pounds. More of pace working down the mound then back in October with a direct correlation to his arm speed and tighter spin on breaking ball. Showed more of a downhill approach with his fastball and mixed a change up in a 75-76 MPH. Stronger, over-the-top finish with more conviction. Big time adjustments in a short span. Looking forward to seeing him at the NY Games this summer. "
