Louisville commit. 6-foot-4, 200-pound, left-handed draft prospect, long upside frame with tons of athleticism in actions. Pitches with tempo, gets the ball and goes, repeats delivery, super easy effort, seemingly more in the tank. Competitor with ice in his veins, finished with a line: 5 IP, 8 H (1 XBH), ER, 5 K, 0 BB (63 of 89 for strikes). Sets up on 3rd base side of the rubber, strides in-line to home, lands square, controls body through release, still head. Arm action is clean with some length on back side, loose throughout and gets extension out front, high ¾ slot, maintains arm speed on all offerings, creates deception, jumps on hitters. Fastball command is plus, both sides of the plate, elevates and paints at the knees, slight 2-seam run, occasional cut, comes out easy and finished through the zone, 88-91 mph, touched 92 mph twice, maintained velo. Plus feel for changeup, used in any count to any hitter, vertical depth with fade, swing and miss action starts with arm speed, present command of the plate, 78-81 mph. Slider used sparingly, tight wrinkle on 2/8 plane, 81-82 mph. Must watch come draft time.
