Hardy has an athletic projectable frame. Hardy has a normal effort delivery and repeats it well. Down and out stride, lands on line, and has a long whippy arm action. Hardy's over the top slot produces some downhill plane on the fastball and the slider tunnels well off of the fastball. The fastball velocity was 78-81 mph throughout and touched 83 mph. The slider was 72-73 mph with tight late shape. Hardy battled through five and a third innings pitched, only allowing two hits.
TPG East
Hardy is 5-11 with an athletic frame that has some strength present and some projection left to it. He throws from a high three-quarters arm slot, longer free arm action and normal effort to his delivery. Shoulders are uphill and online, lands slightly closed with an athletic finish. Fastball was 79-82, touching 84, with downward angle and some late run to armside. Curveball had good armspeed and was 72-74 with late 1-7 break. Change-up had good armspeed and was 73-75 with sink to it.
