Blake
Mayfield

Texas A&M recruit pounded the strike zone, striking out 10 and allowing six hits while walking none. His fastball generally sat 86-89 mph, touching 90 and showing arm-side run at times. His slider was inconsistent, but showed hard sweep at times to get swings and misses out of the zone. He would also flip in a soft, loopy curveball at times for strikes. Mayfield is a good athlete and has a quick arm through a 3/4 slot.

HS Playoffs 2018
Texas A&M commit. 6-foot-1, 170-pound, lean, long-limbed frame. The right-hander works from a high-¾ slot with a long, loose arm swing. Repeats his delivery with an athletic finish and good tempo down the mound. His fastball was 89-91 in the first inning, flashing arm side life at the bottom of the zone. Showed really good command of his slider at 75-76, with 11/5 shape and sharp break. Mowed through the Plano West lineup first time through the order, jamming hitters with his fastball, and getting swings and misses on his slider. Was able to throw the slider both early and late in the count, dotting up the outer half. The pitch is equally effective to left-handed hitters. Took a hard fought loss, but still a quality outing with 6 innings pitched, allowed 3 runs (all off one pitch), on 4 hits, 2 walks, and 7 punch outs.

The right-hander works from a high-¾ slot with a long, loose arm swing and athletic lower half. He touched 90 in the first inning, settling in at 86-88 from the windup and 84-85 out of the stretch.

6-foot, 145-pound projectable frame. Works from a high-¾ slot with long clean arm action. Showed advanced feel for both fastball and slider in his first bullpen session of the fall. Only put the gun up for one fastball at 82 mph.
