Scouting Report

10/11/15, Unsigned Senior Games  - The 6-foot-6 200-pound lefty has a large frame with room to add, uses long arm action and works through a high-3/4 slot, stays closed and tends to work across body, minimal effort in delivery, fastball sat 77-79 mph with occasional arm-side run, curveball was 65-69 and varied between 1/7 and 2/8 break that he commanded well,  stayed low in the zone consistently with both pitches, gave up one hit in his two inning outing for the navy team, intriguing lefty with his size and easy delivery. Davis showed a slight uptick in velocity at the Unsigned Senior Showcase on December 19 with his fastball touching 80 mph.

outlook

With his size and projectability, there is a lot to like about Davis as 6-foot-6  lefties don’t grow on trees. His arm action is clean, and his delivery requires minimal effort. Davis has not likely reached his ceiling from a velocity standpoint, and that coupled with his size makes him an intriguing prospect on the mound with the potential to make significant contributions to a college program.
