Franklin pitched like a blitz, recording two innings in a flash. Slender-bodied and loose-armed, the right-hander sat 91-92 throughout his two innings with solid control and spin into the 2500s on his heater. His breaking ball also spun tight (2700 rpm) at 77-79 mph and he showed very good feel for a near average present changeup at 83-84. The Miami recruit is also a plus athlete who moves easily to field his position.
