Has some sneaky power to the pull side presently with the ability to pepper gaps with line drives. Shows a middle approach that he sticks to. Power projects with continued physical maturation. In the outfield Farmer shows a strong arm with life and accuracy. Arm is a tick long but releases from ear. Hands are soft with clean, quick exchanges. Charges balls under control while playing through them. On the mound Farmer showed a quick-to-fast arm along with clean and repeatable mechanics. Drop-and-drive delivery that gains a fair share of ground working down the mound. Shows a full arm swing in the back through to a ¾ slot and an out-front delivery. Fastball shows some run to the arm side while staying down in the zone. He moved the pitch to both sides of the plate with accuracy. Sows feel for the changeup which shows run back to the arm side from fastball arm speed. Command was a bit erratic with the pitch. Curveball is a potential plus pitch with it's late breaking action. Maintains fastball arm speed with the pitch.
