Sophomore. The sidearmer looks to be an important piece out of the ‘pen for the Warriors this coming spring. From a low sidearm slot, Berberich ran his fastball up to 79.6 mph with up to 19.5” of run, setting up both his offspeeds effectively. He showed feel for both his offspeeds; with his slider landing in the zone 60% of the time at 71-73 with sweeping action and his changeup landing for a strike 100% of the time at 73-75 mph with fade (T16.3” of HM).
