As one of the top 2028s in the province, there is plenty to like in Vanderwal’s game. It starts with the frame. Standing at 6-foot-2, 180-pounds, it’s projectable with plenty of room to fill out and add strength. On the mound, Vanderwal reached 79 mph with the fastball. He kills velocity and vertical break on his splitter, while also tunneling it well, making it an effective off-speed pitch. At the dish, the Parkland Academy product worked in the air to his pull-side gap, reaching a top exit velocity of 85 mph. Vanderwal is a threat on both sides of the ball, and will be a name to follow as he continues to grow into his frame and refine his ability on the diamond.
