RHP Ethan Godlewski (Lincoln-Way East, 2024) put together one of the more polished bullpens of the entire event on Monday. Standing at an athletic 6-foot, 180-pounds, the right-hander moves down the mound with a compact drop/drive delivery, repeating his mechanics with ease. Godlewski impressed by using a running fastball at 80-82 mph to fill up the zone consistently, also showing the ability to navigate the pitch to both sides of the plate. He then went on to a sharp 11/5 breaking ball with depth at 68-70 mph, which he was able to land both for strikes and to put would-be hitters away. His third and final offering was a 73-76 mph changeup, thrown with intent and featuring heavy fading action to the arm-side, also thrown for strikes and kept mostly down.
