Sacco

5-foot-7, 137-pound, thin athletic frame, arms and legs are long, has plenty of room to fill out. This right-handed pitcher has an easy and simple repeatable delivery. The hands start and stay at mid chest, leg raise is smooth and gets to a good gather position. The hands separate more towards the right side of the body. The stride is inline and has proper length to it. The arm action is a little longer on the back side, with some wrap to the arm path, ball comes out of a ¾ slot. The fastball was clocked at 67-69 mh, was thrown down in the zone, the 2 seamer has some run to the arm side. Throws a circle change, clocked at 65-67 mph, needs to take a little off to offset the fastball. The changeup is thrown with good hand speed, comes out of the same slot. The breaking ball is flipped in there, gets around it, as he gets stronger will be easier to throw this pitch. Times to the plate were good at 1.34. Overall looked really good, work on keeping the frontside glove, stronger and connected to the body, drops before release and loses some juice off the fastball. Simple approach at the plate, gets separation with his hands from his body, swing is level, finishes it with two hands below his shoulder, rolls his hands early, needs to stay through it more. The tee exit velocity was 72 mph. Good looking young pitcher.
