Scouting Report

06/28/17- Strong, durable frame right handed pitcher with long arms and big, strong hands showed composure on the mound with a clean delivery, lands consistently in line with quality tempo. Showcased command of the strike zone with above average changeup at 75-76 mph that has the potential to be a plus pitch as well as a slider at 66 mph. Fastball topped out at 86 with heavy life working mostly in the 84-86 mph, jump in velocity is inevitable. The elbow worked below the shoulder at times, which could cause some command issues, but has a chance to make some big velocity and overall jumps as he continues to improve
