Matthew Taylor: LHP/OF, (2026) New Hampton, MA. 5-foot-6, 140-pound. Above average projectable on the mound, showed lightning arm speed, he had a short loose arm action with a ¾ arm angle. Tall-and-fall up-tempo type pitcher who uses easy effort. In his delivery his balance point is tall with even in line shoulders. Lands square with an athletic finish. Produced a fastball that came in at 76-78 mph with a max of 79 mph; has sinking action and arm side command. (Max spin 2063; Avg 1904). Has slurvey late action and glove side control on his 11/5 curveball (65-66). (Max spin 2384; Avg 2275). Shows fading action and arm side control on his changeup (70-71). Love the arm action, competes, has pitchability.
