Beatty has a lankier athletic 5-foot-11 and 155-pound frame. Normal paced athletic delivery with some rhythm to it and late intent. Arm action is full and free with plenty of late acceleration from a high three-quarter slot. Hips and shoulders remain level throughout the delivery and lands slightly open after driving down the mound. Fastball was 77-80 mph with a downward plane low in the zone and some minor cut. Throws the changeup without much speed difference from the fastball and some arm side run at 74-75 mph. Curveball was 65-69 mph and creates an 11/5 break with some hard downward movement when down in the zone. Worked all around the zone, but was most effective lower in the zone with the downward plane on the fastball and deep 11/5 breaking ball.

Beatty is 5-11 with a lankier athletic frame that has plenty of 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 level and closed, lands closed with an athletic finish. Fastball was 73-77, with downward plane and some late run to armside, run was heavier with some depth when down in the zone. Curveball was 61-66 with good armspeed and downer 11/5 break to it, break was harder when down in zone. Showed a change-up without much velocity difference but more late life, with a bit of late hard fade, plays like a two-seamer.
