11.1.15: Baumstark has an athletic frame and throws from a high three-quarters arm slot with a smooth drop and drive delivery. His arm action is long and loose and his quick arm stroke generates velocity with normal effort. His shoulders closed and slightly uphill as he strides out to a closed landing before falling off as he finishes. Baumstark’s fastball sat 77-79 and touched 80 with slight sink to it and good downward plane. His curveball changes shape between 12/6 and 11/5 based on location and has good late break to it, running 67-69. The pitch has a chance to develop into a very good one as he gets stronger and tightens its spin. His changeup has sink and was thrown with good armspeed, running 73-74.
