QUICK HITTERS

Very athletic loose quick arm.  Long lanky frame with loads of projection left.  Fastball shows good life on it along with good arm side run.  Shows a good sharp slider with good tilt to it.  Good action on the change up, slows arm down a bit to throw it.   


Cade Pilgrim 2024 OF/LHP (Clover (HS) • SC)

Good quick tempo with an athletic delivery.  Lean frame with more room to grow.  Shows good arm strength with a quick arm and clean mechanics.  Adds deception in delivery with a higher glove side allowing fastball to play up.  Shows really good spin on the breaking ball and feel for a change up.


Ariston Veasey 2024 C/RHP (Starr's Mill (HS) • GA)

Showing big time arm strength on the mound running his fastball up to 88 on the day.  Had a good arm swing with a smooth athletic delivery.  Really did a good job of using his lower half to help generate power.  Slider showed good bite to it with good tilt to it.
