Uncommitted, Getting the start against a talented Canes Midwest lineup on Monday was certainly a tall order , Jenker came out and competed and it felt like I was watching someone 2 years older. His glaring confidence and fearlessness showed as he was able to consistently challenge hitters and hold a extremely offensive Canes lineup at bay for multiple innings in a row. What stood out immediately was his highly impressive ease of operation. His ability to gradually build up pace and momentum towards home with fluidity throughout all phases was extremely advanced. He consistently synced up his long levers and moved athletically down the mound with low effort which is intriguing. His FB sat 82/85 and was up to 87, he showed the ability to pitch up in the zone just as well as he did down, gradual tail on his FB and it was very effective to RHH as he could start it off the plate away and showed comeback life back over the edge of the plate. His ability to spin his 12/6 CB did not go unnoticed, he consistently showed feel to land and used to start and finish guys with. This was a very exciting arm to watch and will be interesting to follow his development.
