Name: Niall Windeler
Position: LHP
Grade: 2016
Height/Weight: 6-foot-3, 190 pounds
School: Senator O’Connor
Ranking: No.15 in Ontario’s class of 2016
Evaluation: Big, strong lefty with clean arm action that works. Has some strength to him, has frame to project that more strength gains are ahead. Needs to make few minor adjustments to delivery, ended the fall 2014 sitting in low 80’s with fastball, not hard to imagine that number increasing in 2015. Changeup is best off-speed pitch, good deception with some sink and run. Curveball is more slurve but can create good spin and has some feel, chance to be a quality pitch. Windeler is a definite follow for the 2016 class.
