1/14/12 The wide-shouldered 6-foot-2, 205-pound Rubin was the best left-hander at the event, as his fastball consistently sat in the 86-87 range with some late life. Showing rhythm on the mound, Rubin looked natural and will continue to develop at the next level. Rubin also threw a 65-67 mph curveball, and a 73 mph changeup. With continued development of his secondary stuff, Rubin has the potential to be high-level left-handed pitcher.

Rubin is a 6-foot-3, 210-pound left-hander with wide shoulders and a strong base. Working from a high-3/4 arm slot, Rubin located his 84-85 mph fastball down in the zone for strikes. He stays tall and works downhill well. His 70-73 mph changeup demonstrated some fade, and he also threw a developing 68 mph curveball. With his size and clean arm action, Rubin is one of the more promising left-handed prospects in the class.
