Troy Newell, LHP, Francis Howell Central, Class of 2014:
Newell is a projectable 6-foot-4, 180-pound left handed pitcher who showed the ability to command three pitches for a strike.

Newell comes from a ¾ arm slot with good rhythm and a deceptive delivery as the ball jumps out of his hand. Newell’s fastball sat 80-82 mph and showed some late sink Recently, he was seen sitting 82-86 mph. He also throws a breaking ball with 1-to-7 shape with near fastball arm speed that stays down in the zone. Newell also shows a 71-73 mph change up with some cut action.

With some more use of his lower half and continued physical maturity, Newell should see a spike in velocity.
