Scouting Notes: Potential power arm in 2022 class. Velo was a bit down, understandably so as he is coming off an outing this weekend. Up to 82mph but we've seen him up to 87 mph prior. Showed solid feel for the breaking ball, dropping it in the zone consistently. Breaking ball grades out as a well above average pitch. Fastball: 78-82mph. Fastball Spin Rate: 1561-1903 Breaking Ball: 68-71mph. Breaking Ball Spin Rate: 1982-2039

Changeup: 76-77mph. Able to maintain arm action, with subtle arm side run.
Body Type: 6-foot-3, 195-pound physical, projectable frame.

Fastball: 74-76 mph. Heavier arm-side run with late action and accurate with it.
Curveball: 63-65 mph. Tight spin on this breaker with 11-6 tilt. Commands it very well and improved it as he threw more of them.
Changeup: 64-67 mph. Light arm-side run with depth. Threw it more effectively out of the stretch leading to increased movement and locating ability.
Pitchability: Powerful arm with high expectations in his future. Showed light with his off-speed which will both progress as his body fills out. High ceiling for this righty on the mound.
Role: TBD.
