Future Games Report:

 A left-handed pitcher, arm action is short and quick on the backside, works from a higher slot, hides the baseball extremely well. The lift is athletic, with coil to it, shorter stride, gets on top and works down hill. Works the fastball to both sides of the plate, up to 85 mph, its heavy and hard to it. Mixed in a slower breaking ball, needs to turn it into a slider, with more fastball hand speed. Serious chance to be a legit bullpen option, extremely tough on left-handed hitters. 2 IP, 0 run , K, 2 BB, 3 H

6/28/22

6-foot-1, 190-pound athletic strong frame. Above average during batting practice, the right-handed hitter had a max exit velocity of 90 mph. (71.6 mph bat speed average). (22.5 mph hand speed average). Begins in a wide crouched stance with a compact load, then uses a small stride. Bat speed is electric, shows a short upward swing plane and high finish. Created tons of loud contact and found multiple barrels. Pull side approach. Solid from the outfield, he displayed a position velocity of 81 mph; has a natural exchange, average feet, and soft hands. Fields the ball out front, movements laterally were developing. Consistent accuracy to the bag, used a short quick arm action with a high ¾ slot. During the event, recorded a 60 time of 7.18.

11/04/20

6-foot-1, 170-pound, stronger, athletic frame, strength throughout, chance to be very physically down the road. A left-handed pitcher, pounded the zone with a heavy two-pitch mix, working from the set position, a wider, closed off set position. A quick tempo delivery, smaller kick, knee to knee load, weight over backside. The arm action is short on the backside, quick and clean. The fastball was clocked at 80 mph, located down and to both sides of the plate. The changeup is a legit out pitch, coming out of the hand like a fastball, down action, swing and miss offering, clocked at 73-76 mph. Still young, just starting to figure out the breaker, shows good hard hand speed to it. Big follow, works off of some deception, hard to square up.

8/12/20

6-foot-1, 165-pound left-handed pitcher and right-handed hitting outfielder. He ran a 7.47 sixty at the event. The approach in the outfield is appropriate and he stays through the baseball, throwing 77 mph with carry. The bat has an exit velocity of 85 mph. The setup is even in base and small bend in the knees as he gets ready to hit. The front foot has a pick up and put down of it as the ball approaches the hitting zone. The hands work freely and the path is uphill to contact. On the mound, the fastball sat 78-79 mph with arm side action to it. The spin pitch and changeup are still developing. The delivery is online with the feet and the slot is above 3/4. The lift is repeated, small amount of coil at the top of the lift prior to going into stride. The head has a small amount of movement to it. He is a very good 2024 prospect. 

Exit Velocity- 85 mph

OF Velocity- 77 mph

2/29/20

6-foot, 155-pound, longer lean athletic frame. The neck is long, shoulders are rounded and back is wide, has a ton of room to fill out. A right-handed hitting two-way player, worked out at 1st base and in the outfield. Off the mound, works from the left side, working from the set position, hands come set higher. Shorter stride, could lengthen a tick, arm action is clean on the back, working from a higher slot. Pitching downhill, lived in the bottom part of the zone for this bullpen. The fastball was clocked at 75 mph, having natural run to it. Mixed in a changeup at 67-71 mph. Look for the fastball to explode at some point. From the outfield threw an easy 79 mph, using a shuffle for transfer, frontside could close down a more, with less recoil, has more finish in there. At 1st base, shows quick feet gets off the bag, feet move starting double play, with soft hands out front. The arm was fluid from a lower slot, clocked at 73 mph. At the plate, spread out, lower stance, swing gets uphill at times needs to flatten it. The approach is more middle to opposite, when on time, shows plus pop for his age. The tee exit velocity was clocked at 70 mph. Love him off the mound, can play multiple positions, is an athlete, will be a good one.

Tee Exit Velocity: 70 mph

Arm Velocity: 79 mph
