6/17/19
6-foot, 170-pound left-handed pitcher. #75 ranked player in MN 2020 class. One of better performers at event. Crafty left-handed arm that creates deception and changes tempo to hitters. Crouches down mound, pitches up and over front side hiding ball from hitter. Fastball plays up with sneaky life and late movement at 81-84 mph. One of better breaking balls with sharp 12/6 spin and late action; thrown in any count for strikes. Will look to move up in rankings once updated.

6-foot, 170-pound left-handed pitcher. Average build. Quicker tempo delivery. Small balance point and gets down mound with good direction. Falls through and could use more lower half. Short quick arm action and throws from a ¾ arm slot. Fastball has downhill action thrown at 80-81 mph. Curveball has more slider/cutter action with sharp break at 61-62 mph and will occasionally slow arm speed. Change-up is average pitch with some fade action thrown at 66-69 mph.
3/17/18- 6-foot, 163-pound right-handed hitting pitcher. Short rocker step into medium balance point, simple rhythm to hand break, short arm action with early wrap out of glove, quick arm out front. Fastball was 7-79 mph with straight fastball to both sides of plate. Commands breaking ball well with consistent 1/7 shape. Shows flat running action on changeup to arm-side of plate.
10/22/17- 6-foot, 163-pound right-handed pitcher. Projectable build that should continue to add size and strength. Rocker step into slight crouched balance point, short arm action, hides ball from hitter, has above avg. feel for zone with 3 pitches, with deception to hitter. Above avg. tilt on fastball, jumps on hitter, at 79-81 mph. Confident in breaking ball; showing easy ability to land 1/7 curveball for strikes. Varying late action on firm changeup for strikes. Strong follow in 2020 class.
