Scouting Report
10.27.18 - 6-foot-2, 170-pound righty sat 84-86 from an over-the-top arm slot with a balanced, repeatable delivery. While the fastball lacks movement, he does create tilt because of his size and arm slot. Has a tendency to slow his arm speed on his curveball with 11/5 shape at 65-69. Arm speed is much better on the changeup which sits 73-75. Arnold has room to add additional strength to his athletic frame and velocity spikes are likely in the future.
