Body: 6-1, 160 lbs. Lean build with some longer limbs. Projectable.
Delivery: Simple and repeatable mechanics. Lower half works in good direction. Average stride length. Solid lead leg block at landing. Clean and quick arm action. Compact arm circle in the back that comes out of a higher ¾ slot. Accelerates late into release with good arm speed and deaccelerates well.
FB: Higher tilt closer to 12:00 helps give his FB some good induced vertical break with max at 24.3 inches and average at 21 inch average. Good feel for it in the zone. Late life.
CB: Slurvy break due to present HB break. Had some trouble locating it. Sharp break that when thrown for strikes is a K pitch.
CH: Good fading change that had a good amount of armside run shown with 13.7 inches of horizontal break. Consistent arm speed.
