5-foot-10, 145-pound, longer, lean wiry strong athletic frame. A right-handed pitcher, working from the set position, a quick tempo delivery, building momentum down the mound, inline stride, with length to it. The arm action is super short and clean on the backside, hides the baseball extremely well. The arm works out of a natural 3/4 slot, super whippy, tons of bend in elbow. The fastball was located to both sides of the plate, showing heavy sink and arm side action, clocked 79 mph, look for a good jump this winter. The breaking ball is an above average pitch, showing depth and tilt to it, clocked at 71 mph. the changeup was thrown for strikes, and mixed in a cutter at times, still a work in progress, with such good hand speed, should be a very good pitch for him down the road. Good looking arm.

5-foot-10, 140-pound, longer, wiry strong athletic frame, with plenty of room for added weight gains. A right-handed pitcher, working from the set position, leg kick is quick and athletic, loaded on backside, direction is inline. Building momentum done the mound, the arm action is super clean, works with minimal effort from a 3/4 slot, hides the baseball very well behind his body. Pounded the zone with a three pitch mix, attacks and is aggressive. The fastball reached 80 mph, with arm side sink, showed ability to locate to glove side as well. The slider has good hand speed, reached 70 mph, more slurvey than break to it. Showed feel for the changeup, good shape and action to it. Look for the fastball to jump, stuff is advanced, real good follow.
