Geissler is a  6 -foot- 180-pound right-handed pitching prospect. He works primarily out of the stretch. Geissler leans back to stack onto the back leg, before using a big leg kick to get to the balance point. He separates into a short, higher arm slot, producing a fastball that sits 82-84 MPH with some downward tilt. He also features a breaking ball that sits 67-69 MPH with good, tight spin.

6-foot, 170-pound right- handed pitcher. The fastball is 78-80 mph and showed arm side run to the pitch. The spin pitch was 63-64 mph and very big in shape. The pitch needs to be thrown with more fastball hand speed. The changeup is 71-72 mph and solid in shape at times. The delivery is online with the feet and above 3/4 in slot. The lift is solid in tempo, showed back arch as he brings the ball out of his glove. The arm works free and clean. He has improved since we last saw him, still has things to clean up but the arm projects as does his frame. The addition of weight would add to his fastball. 

JUNIOR FUTURE GAMES
5-foot-11, 170-pound right-handed pitcher and corner infielder. Ran a 8.3 sixty on the laser at the event. The feet have to remain active during the fielding process. The glove is soft and he threw 73 mph across the diamond. The bat has a tee exit velocity of 77 mph. The setup is wide in base, uses a knee to knee approach on the bottom half as the ball approaches. The path to the ball is long, as he needs to get physically stronger as he matures in age. On the mound, the arm works clean. The feet are online and the slot is above 3/4. He is improving, the secondary stuff is thrown with better hand speed. The glove has pull to it and the tracking of the front shoulder can improve has he matures in age. 

Tee Exit Velocity- 77 mph
INF Velocity- 73 mph

The delivery is online with the feet and above 3/4 in slot. The lift is repeated, slow and methodical throughout the process. Showed the ability to stay with his arm. The secondary stuff needs to be cleaned up as he matures.
