Scout Evaluation
Martin Zhang, Amity Regional, 2022, CT
Position: LHP
Body: 6-foot, 190-pound athletic solid frame.
Pitching: Above average and confident. Feel delivery, some effort. ¾ arm angle, above average quick arm speed, loose quick arm action. Consistent balance point, in line shoulders, lands closed, an athletic finish.
FB: T87. 86-87 mph. (Max spin 2509; Avg 2362). Arm side accuracy, running action, hard movement.
6-foot, 190-pound left-handed pitcher. This was my first time seeing Martin and I thought he threw the ball very well. The fastball sat 86-87 mph with arm side action and run to it. The breaking ball is 69-70 mph and a tad big in shape. The slider was 72-73 mph and has the makings of a good one. The changeup was 78-80 mph with arm side run and fade to it. The delivery is clean and online. The slot is above 3/4 and the arm works freely. The lift is solid in temp, leads with the hip as he gets coiled prior to making his way into foot strike. The glove comes across the hitters face, leading to deception.
