Right-handed arm from a clean and easy ¾ slot. I love the delivery and the slot, just with the arm was a bit quicker. In time, his velocity should jump a bit as right now it sits 79-81, with a breaking ball that is in the upper 60s. The delivery is easy and on time, looking for him to get stronger and pitch as much as possible to develop correctly.

Free and easy right-handed pitcher with a good and durable frame to his body. The arm works nicely out of a ¾ slot. Fastball was up to 76 and there is more to come. The changeup was his best secondary pitch as he showed good feel for the minus pitch at 70. The pitch has action and depth to it. The breaking ball is wide and sat at 62, he needs more fastball to the pitch and should probably consider a cutter or slider with his arm path. I would like to see this guy again in a year when he is bigger and pitches confidently. There are some things to like.
