Lamb

+ An Oklahoma commit, LHP Tommy Lamb (Grafton HS, WI, 2020) kept the Chicago Scouts Association in the championship game by putting up a couple of zeros out of the bullpen. Lamb, the No. 5 prospect in Wisconsin, has a long, clean arm and was moving his mid-80’s (topped at 87 mph) fastball in and out at the bottom of the zone.

Has been steadily trending up late this spring and into the summer. Lamb tossed a gem in the state Sectional Semifinals and showed more of the same tonight in Mauston for Hitters Baseball. The Oklahoma commit has one of the easiest fastballs in the state and comfortable sat 85-87 mph throughout his outing, touching 87 multiple times in his last several pitches. His best pitch is arguably a plus curveball with swing and miss action on a 1/7 plane, thrown at 77-78 mph. Lamb finished with 10 Ks over five innings in an 8-1 win over GRB Rays Green. 

7/30/18 - Lamb an Oklahoma recruit, battled through five-plus innings at OK Limited Series, allowing just two runs in the fifth. His fastball touched 85 mph early on, and settled in at 81-84 as he made big pitches despite not having his best stuff or command. Also exhibiting feel for two different breaking balls, Lamb was able to get big outs when he needed them throughout. His curveball had more gradual, 1/7 break at 67-68 while his slider was sharper at 74-75, and he was able to back-leg it to right-handed hitters.
