Bertram

2/17/18

6-foot-1 and 145-pound right-handed pitcher with a projectable frame. Bertram works at a quicker tempo with some deception in the delivery. Uses a big leg lift with some counter rotation of the upper body. Works out of a low-3/4 slot with long arm action. Fastball sat 70-74 MPH with run when thrown to the arm side. Shows feel for both of his secondary offerings. The curveball works on a 11/5 tilt at 58-62 MPH with gradual break. The changeup shows cutting action at 64-66 MPH. Two-way prospect. Swings it from the left side. Hands are loose and barrel maintains fluidity through load and into launch. Lower half is smooth as well, creating consistent timing. A back leg hitter with an uphill path. His long levers allow him to do damage when he gets extended. A flatter path would help create more consistent ball flight. A bat to follow as he adds strength to projectable frame. In the outfield he plays with aggressive footwork to the baseball. Will slow tempo at fielding to ensure ball security. Plays one-handed through with average ball skills. Arm is long and loose, projecting for more strength as he matures. Frame and skill set play in the corners at this stage.
