Scouting Report

McDaniel sports a 6-foot-2, 185-pound frame that is very projectable with long arms and legs. He has a clean arm swing and gets downhill from a high-3/4 arm slot.  His fastball sits (74-75) and feel confident more is coming. He shows very good shape to a curvball (62-64) that he lands consistently and also features a changeup (67-68) that he has advanced feel for, and will continue to come as he shows more commitment to it. He has the ability to use all three pitches and does it with ease of operation. Offensively McDaniel has a nice easy left-handed stroke.  He sets-up straight away and shows a nice fluid level swing through the zone. He also shows good bat-speed with an exit velo of 81 mph. Though McDaniel's future is most likely to be on the mound, he shows feel and attributes of a quality hitter. Overall, McDaniel has an interesting future on the mound with very good feel and projection to what he does.  Will be a close follow going forward.
