McCullers is 6-3 with a big frame that has strength present. He hits from the right side from an open balanced athletic stance, strides on line, short load back to a wrap. Hips rotate with some violence and he maintains some lower half balance. Hands stay inside, short and quick to the ball, uphill swing,very strong at contact and good extension through the ball, showed a pull approach with real power already present that way, exit velocity was 102. In the infield, gets behind the ball and fields with a wider base and average hands. Clean exchange, throws from a three-quarters arm slot, short arm action, infield velocity was 84. On the mound, he throws from a high three-quarters arm slot, shorter free quick arm action and normal effort to his delivery. Shoulders are uphill and closed, lands closed with a slight fall off finish. Fastball was 79-83, with hard late armside run to it. Curveball was 68-70 with good armspeed and hard sharp 11/5 downer break to it, some shape to pitch.

McCullers is 6-3 with a big frame that has projection to add strength as he gets into the weight room. He hits from the right side from an open athletic stance, short stride on line, smooth load back, relaxed setup. Hips rotate completely and weight shifts forward during rotation, some balance at contact. Shorter path to ball, hands stay inside, good strong contact point with very good extension. Slightly uphill path generates loft without extreme uppercut, showed a pull preference but also ability to work gap to gap. Power already evident due to levers with more to come as he adds strength and quickness, exit velocity was 88. In the outfield, gets behind ball and plays through it, fields with average hands and has a quick clean exchange. Throws from high three-quarters arm slot, quick arm and carry on his throws, outfield velocity was 83. Ran a 4.49 home to first. On the mound, throws from a high three-quarters arm slot, long free arm action that is quick, throws with normal effort. Shoulders are uphill and on line, lands square with an athletic finish, simple delivery. His fastball was 73-77 with downward angle and some late sink to it. Curveball was 62-69 with big 12/6 break and some armspeed, should sharpen as he continues to develop. Change-up was 62-63 with some armspeed and late sink to it.
