Working from a high ¾ slot, Busch looked very athletic on the mound with an easy delivery as the ball really jumps out of the hand. The FB was up to 82 mph with nice nice 2 seam action and the breaking ball showed nice depth at 68-71 mph which he commanded well to his glove side. The change up showed nice downward action in the low 70’s. Intriguing arm on the mound. Showed some natural athletic actions in the OF and worked through the throw very well with nice arm strength (82 mph). At the plate he showed some quick twitch actions in the hands from a leg kick approach. Showed nice bat speed and really kept the barrel through the hitting zone a long time. Like the athleticism in this ‘21 grad.

The stance was narrow and the feet were open to begin. He continually stayed in the middle of the field during his round of BP and showed a fairly level swing path. Could add some more pop by using his lower half a little better. Outfield play seemed very simple for him as he showed athletic actions and nice hip flexibility during the catch and throw process.
