Arkansas recruit. 6-foot-2, 220-pound right-handed pitcher, wide-bodied, physically mature frame with broad shoulders and strong lower half. Works between high-¾ to over-the-top slot, long takeaway with some stiffness in the back, quick hand out front. Timing issues in delivery led to inconsistency around the zone with the fastball. Topped at 92 mph, sitting mostly 90 out of the windup, 88 from the stretch; tendency to miss up. Changeup was best pitch, flashing heavy sink at times between 80-83 mph. Throws changeup with intent; registered one of the better changeup spin rates per FlightScope, 1,454 rph. Breaking ball ranged between 75-78 mph, erratic shape and inconsistent around the zone. With more refinement in the delivery, it wouldn't be surprising if Beasley was pumping consistent mid-to-upper-90s after three years at Arkansas.
8/7/17 - Pitched 1.2 innings and allowed a run and a walk while striking out two. He was 92-94 in his first inning form a high-3/4 slot and settled in at 90-92, but still touched 94 in his second inning.
Beasley is a 6-foot-2 200-pound right-hander with a large frame and an average build. He showed advanced arm strength throwing his fastball 90-93 mph with slight sink. He pitches from a H ¾ arm slot with a quick arm with some strength to the arm action. He repeats his delivery consistently using rushed rhythm with late hand separation. He threw a curveball as his secondary 76-77 mph with 11/5 shape and early break. Overall Beasley is a large player with raw strength, he will continue to be a top prospect as his arm strength is advanced.
