Jack Sullivan RHP / SS / Carmel, NY / 2021

High end athlete on the mound; quick,whippy arm action with 3 pitch feel (FB,CB,CH). Had one of the more impressive outings at the NYS Games working 87-89 MPH with 72-74 MPH breaking ball. Squared off shoulders on a 5-foot-11 170 pound frame. 

Sullivan is slated to throw the 1st inning on Thursday vs. Massachusetts and the 4th inning on Saturday vs. New Jersey.

 

 

 

 

Brian Reinke LHP / 1B / Honeoye Falls Lima, NY / 2021

He is slated to pitch the 2nd inning on Thursday vs. Massachusetts and the 1st inning on Saturday vs. New Jersey.

 

 

 

 

Owen Wendell-Braly RHP / Millbrook Prep, NY / 2021

Wendell-Braly had a break out session at the NYS Games working in the 85-88 MPH range, touching 89 MPH with his heater. Breaking ball took on more of a slider shape at 76-79 MPH. Long, clean arm swing from an athletic 6-foot-3 175 pound frame.

He will throw the 3rd inning on Thursday vs. Massachusetts and the 7th inning on Saturday vs. New Jersey.

 

 

 

 

Matthew Mariano RHP / SS / Shenendehowa, NY / 2021

Mariano started the year on JV but quickly found his way to the varsity level, including pitching in the state final.

Sturdy 6-foot-0 180 pound frame.

Troy Butler RHP / Fort Plain , NY / 2021

Butler will throw the 5th inning on Thursday vs. Massachusetts and the 3rd inning on Saturday vs. NJ.

 

 

 

 

Chris Sleeper RHP / 3B / Rush Henrietta, NY / 2021

Sleeper is another arm that thrust his name on a state level with his efforts at the NYS Games. The well put together 6-foot-2 180 pound righty has an up tempo pace with late hand speed out in front. Sat in the 86-88 MPH range and can mix an above average slider at 76-77 MPH.

Sleeper will throw the final 2 innings on Thursday vs. Massachusetts and the 6th inning vs. New Jersey on Saturday.
