Young

6/14/16 - Max FB: 82, FB: 79-82, CB: 64-67, 
6-foot-2, 195-pound, RHP showed the same rhythm and smoothness in his delivery that we saw at the Top Prospect Games back in June, good gather at the top of his leg lift and some slight shoulder tilt help him gain an angle before his approach to the plate, stride toward the plate enables him to finish under control and balanced, long arm action comes through an over-the-top release slot.  Fastball stayed mostly straight and didn’t show the velocity we saw early in the summer, curveball showed 11/5 shape and was thrown for strikes when it counted.

6/14/16 - Max FB: 84, FB: 81-83, 70-73 Slider
6'2, 190-pound, RHP uses a smooth motion and delivery to pitch from a strong position on the mound, throws from an over-the-top release point and gets some decent downhill angles on his pitches, fluid arm action looks clean, stays tall for the majority of his motion and really tries to reach out and achieve a long stride with his lead leg.  Fastball stays mostly straight but does use that downhill action to its advantage, breaking ball had 10/4 slider action and showed the ability to be pretty sharp, both pitches were thrown consistently for strikes to both sides of the plate.  Young struck out 4 hitters in his two innings of work and has a chance to continue getting better.
