Bergstrom had one of the better bullpens on the day and a main reason for that is his ability to locate all 3 of his offerings for strikes. He only missed the strike zone twice. He lived down in the zone with the fastball sitting 85-87 and topping out at 87.3 mph. With a high release point, he can create a steep vertical approach angle when down in the zone which will help generate weak contact and plenty of ground balls. The slider comes in at 73-77 mph and has more HB than vertical break. It compliments the fastball well and has the makings to be a swing & miss offering. The ability to locate his changeup for strikes (73-75 mph) allows him to keep hitters off balance and use his other two pitches more effectively. Bergstrom is one of the top uncommitted 2024 arms in Alberta.

Bergstrom is a large framed 2024 grad. The 6-foot-2, 210-pound right-hander fills the zone with a solid three-pitch mix. Bergstrom works over the top and moves well downhill. Bergstrom was up to 89 MPH with the fastball, sat 78-79 MPH with a changeup that has good arm side run and 82-84 MPH with a good sweeping slider. On the infield Bergstrom has smooth actions and clean footwork working through the ball. At the plate Bergstrom showed somer pull side pop from the right side. Bergstrom found consistent barrels during his round averaging 89.6 MPH and getting as high as 94 MPH off the bat. Bergstrom is solid two-way player that should put up some big numbers through the year.

Bergstrom is another arm out of AHP that jumped out at the New Year Open. Present strength on the mound at 6-foot-2, 210-pounds and the fastball sat 87-89mph with life and armside run. Works with a firm breaking ball at 81mph that has late, sharp downward action. Also flashed a changeup at 77-79mph.
Looks to be more upside on the mound right now but he also swung the bat well from the right-side. Found the barrel 62% of the time with a top exit velocity of 93.1mph and top distance of 332ft. Another 2024 prospect that should garner attention from college coaches going forward.
