NJ Futures Preview (6/4/16)
Cancellieri stands 5-foot-10  180-pounds, and has a strong, athletic body for a 2019. Hitting- sits in a crouch and uses a short leg kick for a load. Hands stay relaxed and then slightly move backward into a strong loaded position, and his hands explode to the baseball. Fielding- shows above average hands in the infield. Choppy at times with feet in setting himself and throwing - throws to first in a true over the top motion. Ball has backspin and some carry. Pitching- Showed excellent FB velocity for his age at 80-82 and touched 83 with run when it is down in the strikezone. Showcased a slower 11-5 breaker that is more of a gradual curveball, and a harder, sharper slider that had cutter-like movement. Throws from a high-3/4 to over-the-top arm angles. Has a smooth delivery. Hands stay stagnant throughout. Has a tendency to snap his neck when he pitches.
