Haggard was highly impressive with the best pitchability at the event. His 6 foot 4, 180 pound frame is very athletic with lean muscle and plenty of strength gains to come. He moves extremely well on the bump with a low effort, repeatable delivery and confidence in everything he does. Each pitch is thrown with purpose, and he has advanced control/command of 3 pitches. His FB sat 83-85 with live run and sink, dotting both edges with ease. His two plane CB at 68-70 tunneled well off the FB, and he showed the ability to repeat shape and throw strikes. The CH was on another level at 76-77, with unreal fade and depth shown consistently. His sweeping 71-73 SL showed late depth differentiated from his CB greatly, adding a completely different look to his arsenal. A very intriguing sleeper arm with D1 talent.
