Gregory-Alford was the biggest revelation at the Future Games. Taking the ball on the final day for Team Colorado, the imposing, 6-foot-5, 220-pounder sent college coaches scrambling to get over to his field after pumping in fastballs at 90-93 with a quick arm and athletic delivery. Adding to his allure, Gregory-Alford exhibited advanced aptitude for spin including a sharp, 77-81 slider that was manipulated, and holds upside as a potential plus-offering in the future. Still more, his 83-84 changeup profiled well off of the fastball and was thrown with confidence. Seeming to come out of nowhere, it was a remarkable look at one of the highest upsides in the class, and a pitcher that likely had college coaches dreaming of as their future Friday Night starter.
