Freshman Free Showcase 1/26/19
Potholm is 6-0 with an athletic frame that has projection left to it. He throws from a low three-quarters arm slot with long free arm action that is quick with normal effort. Simple smooth delivery, shoulders level and on line, lands on line with an athletic finish. Fastball was 74-75 with some sink. Curveball was 61-64 with sharp 10/4 break, and some armspeed. Change-up was 65-66 with good armspeed and heavy sink to it.
2019 Diamondskills All-American Camp 1/19/2019
6-foot, 165-pound long athletic frame. Easy delivery with low effort from the mound. Low balance point with a short deceptive arm action to a low three-quarter arm slot. Fastball showed arm side run at 72 mph. Two seam also showed some late swing back action. Curveball had more of a slurve action to it changing planes as well as significant side to side break. Ran the 60 in 7.63. Upright on line stance with a knee to knee load landing slightly closed. Hands are back at foot strike and ready to fire to a level bat path and an upright finish. Hips finish completely and posted a 78 mph exit velo. Feet are active and gain ground on catch. Hands are soft to a clean exchange. Arm action is short to a low three-quarter arm slot with throws at 72 mph across.
