Eli Shaw, Warren Central, 2023, IN
Position: RHP/SS
Body: 6-foot-3, 180-pound solid projectable build.
Hit: (RHH) Begins in a tall stance with a tight load, then uses a short stride. High finish, flat swing.
Power: 92 mph exit velocity, average 80.72 mph. 65.86 mph bat speed average. 19.32 mph hand speed average.
Defense: (IF) Soft hands.
Arm: 76 mph infield velocity. Long arm action, high ¾ slot.
Speed: 7.46 (60-yard).
Pitching: Feel delivery, some effort. over-the-top arm angle, short arm action.
FB: T83. 80-82 mph. (Max spin 2146; Avg 2024). Glove side accuracy.
CB: 68-70 mph. Low in the zone control, tight 11/5 movement.
CH: 74-75 mph.
SL: Slight sweeping action. (Max spin 1894; Avg 1884).
Very tall, long legged high waist frame. Square, wide shoulders and long arms. Good extension levers for a pitcher. His delivery starts in the middle of rubber with a soft smooth step to start his abbreviated high hand separation. H ¾ arm slot and in line transfer to plate. Small stand up finish with soft landing. Arm works well out front with arm speed. FB has some run in zone followed with a high top to bottom spin on a CB. Shaw displays a tight spin rotation slider that tends to get in between on angles compared with curveball. He will most likely gravitate to a Slider as he continues his development. A straight changeup is in the mix that has good control and command. His size and flexibility will continue to be intriguing through his years of development. Has good chance to be starter in future due to the ability to command 3-4 pitches well.
