Physical: Long, high-waisted 6-foot-1, 165-pound frame with plenty of projectability in the build and feel on the bump.
Pitching: Worked at a comfortable pace on the mound utilizing a repeatable delivery and fluid, high ¾ arm-slot through the release window. The fastball worked at 82-84 mph with a max of 2289 spin per Trackman Baseball. Mixed in a well above-average 70-72 mph CB with two-plane 11/5 action and swing and miss movement. Countered with a quality 72-74 mph CH with fade to the arm side and near fastball arm speed creating deception at the plate. Really liked the competitiveness in the zone and ability to put hitters away in game action when ahead. Missed plenty of barrels and stayed in control by living in advantage counts on the bump.
2/15/20
6-foot-1, 150-pound righty sat 81-82 from a high 3/4 arm slot with some crossfire to his delivery. Curveball was commanded at 70-72 while showing late, short slider break. Changeup was thrown at near fastball arm speed at 70-71. Long frame has plenty of room to add additional strength and velocity.
11/02/19
6-foot-1, 150-pound righty sat 79-81 out of a 3/4 arm slot. Arm action is long and easy. Delivery is balanced and repeatable. Curveball sat 68-70 with 11/5 rotation that showed two-plane depth at times. Changeup at 71-73 is an advanced pitch with arm-side run and sink. Athletic frame has room for added strength and velocity spikes are likely moving forward.
