Scouting Report
7/12/17 6-foot-1, 185-pound right-handed hitter initiates swing from neutral set up with short stride, demonstrating adequate separation and good balance. There is back elbow leak with associated bat drag and length. Stump recorded a bat exit velocity of 88 mph.
Defensively, gets behind baseball and catches at it's height. Gets adequate reads but would benefit from being more aggressive in playing through ball on ground. Flashed 87 mph arm strength on throws from OF.
On mound, FB sat 83-85 with considerable arm side run out of high 3/4 arm slot. Change up was thrown with FB arm speed at 76-77 mph. Change up had substantial arm side fade. CB showed 11-5 shape with limited depth. Stump also featured a splitter at 74 mph that demonstrated late, sharp downward action. Change up and splitter are both potential next level out pitches. Mechanically, there was some tendency to spin off with front side creating arm drag and first base fall. Stump would benefit from staying in line by being more aggressive in driving over front side.
6/15/16 5-foot-11, 175-pound right-hander sat 80-84 from a high 3/4 arm slot with good balance and direction to his delivery. Also displayed solid feel for a 70 mph curveball with 11/5 rotation and a 75 mph changeup thrown with solid arm speed. Worked three innings with three strikeouts while allowing six hits.
