The ace of the Antelopes, Thornton has similar stuff to O’Halloran. A JUCO transfer from Barton CC, (Kan.) he’s off to a 4-0, 2.70 ERA, 4 BB, 49 SO in 35 innings start to his season. The 6-foot-3, 175 pound slender-bodied lefty receives plenty of looks each Friday night from high-level executives stopping by to get a look at his teammate Jacob Wilson. Thornton pitches with a fun swagger and attacks the zone. He also blends pitchability and deception, while his carrying tool is his competitiveness.
5-foot-10, 125-pound left-handed pitcher. Thin frame, clean arm action, lands inline to plate, some hand quickness out front, shows ability to repeat delivery well. Fastball was 69-73 mph with late sinking action. Curveball has loose spin and early break for strikes. Straight flat action on changeup currently.
