RHP Paulson Yesbeck (Elkhorn, 2025) is a big-bodied righty who showed a live arm and above-average command. The arm action is short from the ¾ slot, but the ball still comes out with life. His fastball was 83-84 mph with some carry and run through the zone, but his best pitch was the curveball - a 69-70 mph breaker with heavy and late 12/6 break. He also showed a slider with similar movement to the curveball. Yesbeck was one of the more polished arms at the event, standing out for his command and breaking ball.
6/18/24

RHP Paulson Yesbeck (Elkhorn, 2025) continues to give us intriguing looks with his ability on the mound. The right-hander stands a strong and sturdy 6-foot, 238 pounds with impressive ability to move down the hill in a controlled and repeatable manner. His fastball was coming out of his hand clean at 83-84 mph and he displayed the ability to get the ball to spots in the zone. He landed a couple of different breaking balls that both play with two-plane break and shape and have sharp quality to them when approaching the hitting zone. Finally, he rounded out his arsenal with a late fading change up that also has depth to the pitch. It seems Yesbeck continues to take steps forward in front of our staff and he is certainly an uncommitted name to monitor going forward.

RHP Paulson Yesbeck (Elkhorn, 2025) is a sturdy 6-foot-1, 220-pound righty who impressed during our time in Franklin. Working with tempo, Yesbeck is a raw mover on the bump, but features a strong, whippy arm that sat in the 83-85 mph range with his lively fastball and created over a foot of IVB on average. He also showed feel for two secondaires, the first being a tight slider in the high-60s that was thrown at arm speed and projects as a quality off-speed offering. The second was a low-70s changeup that he effectively killed spin on and maxed at 12.2’ of horizontal movement. Yesbeck has made some gains to his overall profile as a pitcher since our previous look at him in the winter, and is certainly a name to monitor throughout the summer, and on.
