Hobbins has been a standout all year in the Baseball Alberta Elite League (BAEL), leading the league in strikeouts by a wide margin. That success continued at the Calgary Summer ID. He worked up to 89 mph with the fastball, sitting 87-88 mph. He also has the ability to spin it north of 2500 rpm. The curveball, in which he can also spin at a high rate of 2550 rpm, profiles more like a gyro slider with it’s movement profile and velocity, 79-82 mph.It’s an effective pitch when located down in the nonetheless. Hobbins moves freely on the mound with a long and loose arm. The 6-foot-1, 195-pound RHP has been flying under the radar as of late, but that has since changed with his performance in the BAEL and during the Summer ID.

The 6-foot-0, 195-pound RHP started off his day with an impressive bullpen. Hobbins got up to 83 mph, sitting 81-82. He possesses a low-effort delivery and loose arm with a ¾ arm slot. His sinker has more arm side run to it than depth, which comes in at 80-82 mph. His curveball has vertical depth out of the same slot which compliments both primary offerings well as it changes the eye-level of the hitters. On the infield, Hobbins was able to get up to 83 mph across the diamond.
