The fastball topped out at 83.5 mph to go along with a changeup that averaged -16.8 inches of arm side movement. The curveball has good depth and is bound to miss bats at the bottom of the zone.

McWhinnie also made strong, accurate throws from the outfield and posted a max exit velocity of 86 mph in the box.
