10.28.17

6-foot-4, 205-pound, strong, wide physical frame, a well proportioned athlete, has quick twitch actions to him. A right-handed pitcher, arm is strong and powerful. The delivery is athletic, hands are quiet at shoulder height, leg raise is powerful with coil at the peak. The arm action is long and clean on the back side, works out of a high ¾ slot. The fastball is in the mid 80’s it's heavy with action to the arm side, worked hard in to most right-handed hitters. The lower half could be more direct to plate, wants to get across the body, stride is a tick short, could lengthen might help the direction and not spin off at times so much. The breaking ball is hard at 77-79 mph, works more of a slider, thrown for both a strike and swing and miss. The times to the plate are at 1.47. Projectable arm, needs refinement with the delivery, but the stuff is above average, will be a good one.

6-foot-4, 205 pounds, thick and muscular frame, well-proportioned, strong upper and lower halves. A big right handed pitcher, Kleinfeld throws from a higher slot. Has a max effort delivery with some violence too it. The hands start high with a normal leg kick, he has a slight hitch with the back shoulder before accelerating towards the plate. Will need to continue working on repeating his mechanics, as the arm can trail behind the rest of the body at times, causing him to leave pitches elevated and over the plate. Kleinfeld works with a three pitch mix. The fastball is heavy with sink, coming in between 83-86 mph. Working on command of the pitch will help is secondary offerings play up. His slider is a swing-and-miss pitch when on. There is good tilt and break away from righties at 76-79 mph. The changeup is still a work in progress as it can be a little firm between 76-77 mph. Thrown with same arm speed as the fastball which is promising. Overall, Kleinfeld is a good athlete with the potential to continue improve. The stuff is there, harnessing the command of his pitches is key. Someone worth keeping tabs on.
