Jared King LHP / 1B / East Mecklenburg , NC / 2019
6 feet 2, 195-pound build. Some strength present. Left handed pitcher who worked only from the stretch. Creates deception, working slightly across his body to the plate, with a high lead arm. Arm works with a long arm action, throwing from a high ¾ slot. Works in the zone with his fastball at 75-78 mph. Fastball has arm side run at times. Flashes a straight changeup with near fastball arm speed at 71-72 mph. Curveball has 1/7 break at 65-70 mph. Curveball lacks depth at times. Shows the ability to throw both secondary pitches for strikes. Has upside as a big body left handed arm with deception in his delivery. |

Christopher Hayward RHP / OF / Queens Grant, NC / 2019
5 feet 11, 140-pound athletic build. Thin, there is plenty of room to continue to add strength. Right handed arm still ramping up from an arm issue in his past. Completely healthy now. Clean, fluid delivery with a smooth tempo working in line to the plate. Arm works with a long arm action, throwing from a high ¾ slot. Pounds the zone with his fastball at 82-83 mph and 81 mph from the stretch. Good hand speed and extension. Working off his fastball primarily, he did throw a knuckleball as his secondary offering. Some tumbling action at 59-60. Throws it with decent hand speed and flashed some feel for the zone, lacking command of the glove. |
