Future Games Report:
A right-handed pitcher, works from a higher slot. The arm action is short and clean, working with minimal effort. The lower half backside is strong and rides it out, direction in line to the plate. The fastball was up to 85 mph, locates to both sides of the plate, mixed in a solid breaking ball. Works quick, pounds the zone, plenty of room for the fastball to jump.Pounds the zone with all three pitches, plenty to love about this one, major feel for pitching. Pitched two clean innings. Stat Line- 2 IP, 2 K, 1 H, 1 BB, 0 R.
