Auburn commit. Big presence with athleticism at 6-foot-4, 200 pounds. Showed some of the best pure stuff on the mound during the event. Throwing from a H3/4 slot, Austin’s FB got up to 92, sitting in the 89-91 range. Out-pitch looks to continue to be slider at 74-78 mph. Late break that starts down the middle, ending up on outer-black. Gets step-out reaction when on. #2 ranked 2020 player in Alabama.

Auburn commit. 6-foot-4, 200-pounds, physical imposing on the mound with strength throughout his frame and more to be tapped into. Arm works ultra quick with effort to get out to a 3/4 slot. Fastball comes out hot and heavy at 89-92, touching 93, induced weak contact, swing and misses and broken bats with, the top fastball seen all weekend at the Adidas Three Stripe Classic. Slider is already an out pitch with room to get even better at 80-82. Will no doubt garner heavy attention as the 2020 MLB Draft approaches, ranked No. 2 in Alabama and No. 98 Overall.
An electric arm! Long pitcher type body now (6'3 190) with the possibility of added strength in the future which really creates a high ceiling for him. Showing a fastball in the low 90's with late ASR and secondary pitches that have developed (a tight breaking ball in the 79-81 range and a changeup that disappears from LLH at 80-81). Very clean mechanics on the mound. A name to remember.
