Notes

4/15/21

Uncommitted. Has been on the rise throughout the winter and is currently ranked No. 59 in the Illinois’ 2022 class. Highly projectable 6-foot-2, 185-pound frame. Started on the mound for Huntley. Clean, short ¾ arm action. Smooth delivery, loads/drops into his back leg while keeping his stride in line. Fastball sat 84-88 with late sink and arm-side-run. Slider showed to be his best secondary pitch on this day, thrown at 74-78 mph with sharp break and feel for the bottom of the zone. Curveball is also an above-average offering at 71-74 mph, with 11/5 shape, with similar feel as the slider and a distinctly different action. Changeup was thrown from the same arm slot as his fastball at 77-79, with good downward movement. True four-pitch repertoire which profiles as a starter at the next level. 

3/20/21

Positional Profile: RHP/C
Body: 6-2, 185-pounds. Athletic, projectable frame.
Delivery: Showed some rhythm, drop and drive, strides in-line with the plate, foot lands square.

CH: 78-79 mph. Thrown with intent, arm-side fade, feel for the zone. T1593, 1561 average rpm. 

3/20/21
Guazzo looked remarkably polished, with feel for four pitches. He worked the bottom of the zone with a running fastball and and a deceptive changeup with fading action. Of both his breaking balls, the curveball looks slightly ahead, but both were able to land for strikes.
1/31/21

1/31/21

RHP Adam Guazzo (Huntley): Guazzo made a case for himself to be one considered as one of the highest additions to the 2022 state rankings when we update the board next, following the winter. A well-proportioned 6-foot-1, 180 pounds, Guazzo showed off a big arm sitting 87-89 mph, with a plus slider for his age at 74-77. Since this same event last year, Guazzo made the change to work out strictly as a pitcher, and he’s seen a 10 mph spike over that time.
