6/12/18 - Currently ranked No. 83 in the PA Class of 2019, Seidel was the most impressive pitcher to toe the rubber on day one of the event. The 6-foot-1, 190-pounder sat 84-86 while touching 87 mph several times during his three innings of work. The fastball is flat but the arm is very quick out of a high 3/4 arm slot with a short arm swing. Some work to lengthen his arm swing and a slightly lower arm slot could easily add several mph of velocity and movement to the fastball in the coming years. His changeup at 78-79 and curveball at 68-70 with 11/5 rotation are average, but his slider has the potential to be a consistent out pitch at the next level. The slider sits 75-77 with sharp late break and was commanded consistently for strikes. Seidel allowed just one hit over three innings while striking out three and inducing five ground ball outs.
