5-foot-10, 155 pounds, average athletic build, should continue adding strength to the frame heading into his senior season. A left-handed pitcher, Koch delivers from a high ¾ slot. Slight sitting action on the backside of the delivery with some coil during leg kick, creating some deception. Quick tempo, working with purpose. Short and clean arm circle. Online and on time mechanically during the bullpen session. Average extension down the mound. The fastball was clocked at 75 mph, located down in the zone with action to the arm side, will be tough on right-handed hitters, with baseball riding away. The curveball was clocked at 66 mph, proper spin and shape to it, thrown for strikes. Good prospect, much more in the tank, good follow.
