Standen

Uncommitted - Six-foot-4, 210-pounds. Extra-large frame with a high waist, long limbs and large feet add to the projection. Working from a slight drop-and-drive delivery through to a high 3/4 almost over-the-top arm slot to an out front release point. Incorporates a high leg kick and a slight back turn that hides the ball in his compact path in the back. Standen impressed in his outing with a three-pitch mix that featured a lively fastball with two-seam cut action that induced several swing-and-miss passes. It�s a heavy fastball that seems a lot firmer than the 87 mph he was throwing it. His curveball showed a true 12/6 shape with late sharp biting action that missed bats. The bottom just drops out of the pitch. Showed feel for the changeup that worked down in the zone with late diving action to the back foot of righties. Maintains same arm speed/slot on all pitches adding to his deception.
