7/7/15
Downs stands 5-foot-8, 145-pounds with a smaller build. Relaxed balanced delivery. Smooth tempo. Arm action is clean, throws from a mid-3/4 slot, fastball sitting 79-83 mph with some arm-side sink. Curveball has an early hump out of the hand sitting 67-70 mph, needs to finish more out in front with more hand-speed. The stronger he gets the more consistent he will be.
Position // 7/7/15 Small body, but athletic at 5-foot-8, 145-pounds. Versatile fielder who shows great range, clean and smooth footwork towards the ball, hands are smooth and quick to release point. Arm action is clean and has multiple arm slots he can release from. At the plate he is very balanced and relaxed, smooth back load and short stride helps keep his swing compact and short through the zone. Bat path is short and ends with a high finish after contact. Shows potential as a contact hitter.
