Big strong frame at 6-foot-2, 225 pounds. Good first step and moves athletically when fielding and centers the ball with above average arm with life. Hands are soft while footwork is fluid with quick clean exchange. Balanced approach at the plate with smooth load and short stride while using the lower half well. Has gap to gap power with power to the pull side. Has good balance delivery that stays in line to home with all pitches. Fastball sits 85-87 mph and stays low in the zone. Slider sits 72-73 mph with sharp break at the end and for strikes. Changeup is 78-79 with some sink at the end and has fastball arm speed.
10/20/18 - Currently stands at 6-foot-2, 230 pounds with a big, stocky frame. Works the corners of the plate and creates some downhill action, featuring a heavy fastball that mostly sat 84-85 mph. Also mixed in a 72-73 mph curveball with depth, throwing it for strikes and generating swings/misses with two strikes. Larsen shows poise on the hill and looks to get ahead of the batter with first pitch strikes. Young arm to follow.
