Body: 5-10, 135-pounds. High waisted, long and lanky, plenty of room for growth and development. Delivery: Offset out of the stretch, across body delivery, front side closure, balanced head, athletic finish. Arm Action: LH. Slinging arm action, low 3/4 and submarine flashed, effective release point. Very effective against RHH. Consistency will be key to future command and success. FB: T74, 71-73 mph. Fastball shows life and some hop, looked the best up and in to RHH, development to the other side of the plate will be key. Submarine fastball was effective when controlled, another option to make RHH uncomfortable in the box. SL: 60-63 mph. Slider spin and release plays off the fastball well, swing and miss potential now and in the future, got RHH to flinch. Did not face a LHH. CH: Flashed a changeup, could really help his arsenal with potential fading action, key pitch to facing LHH.
