HUNTER LOYD / RHP / OF / CAK, TN / 2019Rankings StateRank: 33 / POS: 8
FB (87-91, T92), SL (78-81), CH (80-83) - 7 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 2 BB, 7 K East Tennessee State commit was dominant from the 2nd inning on, finding his release point and attacking the zone w/ 3 pitches. Medium, athletic frame w/ high-waist, some well-proportioned lean strength, projectable. Pitches from a full wind-up into ¾ to H ¾ release from the first base side of the rubber. Glove tap and go type. Lot of moving parts in delivery, but athletic with ability to get arm on time. Just needs reps to do it consistently, especially early on in the game. Straight FB shows occasional short arm-side run. ¾ tilt SL w/ proper shape and rotation, flashes above average w/ late bite. CH w/ arm-speed, fade and sink. Was a true swing and miss pitch on this day w/ FB arm-speed. Around the zone, showed advanced feel for his secondary stuff (24 of 28 for strikes). More control than command with the FB. Projects to command. Generated 18 swing and misses on 49 swings. /var/www/html/login/modules/Playerss/shortcodes.json not found
