The ease of operation and effortless delivery and tempo is what stands out the most about Holder. The frame is projectible, and the arm action is primed and ready for more velo with added strength. He throws 3 pitches for strikes and can command the fastball at 83-85 on both sides of the plate. He led his team to a state championship appearance, and has been throwing since February. The curveball was 73-75, and he could throw it for strikes early in the count or throw it back good for swing and miss. The change up was my favorite pitch from Holder. He threw it back foot to rightys, which is a pitch most RHP’s do not throw confidently. He missed barrels with it at 77-78. He is going to a RHP to know in the class, and projects as a starter at the next level.
