PLAYER SPOTLIGHT
Day gained experience pitching in front of scouts last summer when he attended the East Coast Pro Showcase as an underclassman and he seemed at ease at the Tournament of Stars, striking out seven and allowing just one unearned run on four hits and two walks over six innings pitched. He also hit two batters, but on nasty breaking balls down and in. Day sits 90-92 with his fastball and can get it down in the zone well at times. His slider has power and depth to it at 77-80, though he didn’t always finish the pitch. He has a very quick arm and maintains his arm speed on a swing-and-miss changeup that sits around 80 with good sink. He has a tall, lanky frame at 6-foot-4, 160 pounds and some effort to his delivery. He is verbally committed to Vanderbilt. |
