RHP James Wasson (Nazareth Academy, 2027) spins everything in his arsenal at a high rate. The 6-foot-5, 195-pound freshman threw a straight, four-seam fastball at 85-86 mph that peaked at 2554 RPM. He spun two different breaking balls that each averaged more than 16 inches of horizontal movement; a 69-71 mph curveball at 2464 RPM on average and a more firm 73-75 mph slider that averaged 2443 RPM.

Wasson showed out on the mound during his short outing. Already standing at 6-foot-4 with a frame that oozes projection, Wasson has advanced arm strength and is able to run his fastball up to 84 mph, sitting 80-83 mph throughout his 1.2 innings of work. Also, confident in his secondary pitches, Wasson mixes in a 11/5 curveball that he is able to land in the zone and a changeup that he throws with intent. Wasson has really popped this past weekend and will be an upside arm to follow throughout the summer circuit.
