Underclass Games - Pitcher Analysis

Positional Profile: RHP One of the most projectable arms in the class with huge upside.
Body: 6-foot-5, 200-pounds. Projectable frame, long, lanky with broad shoulders and a wide base, tons of room to fill out.
Delivery: Drop and drive delivery, rides lower half down the mound , high front side drives through, works on-line, lands square, finishes crossing over.
Arm Action: RH. Short arm action with a soft stab on the back-side, quick arm speed with loose action out of a 3/4 slot, good extension.
FB: T87.5, 83.2-85.5 mph. Shows sink at times T2190, 2033 average rpm.
SL: 69.0-70.4 mph. Sweepy with late bite out of the zone, swing and miss pitch at-times. T2260, 1964 average rpm.
CH: 76.5-77.5 mph. Fade and sink action. T1790, 1759 average rpm.

Uncommitted. Solid, big-bodied 6-foot-6, 200-pound frame with more room to mature. Long arm action with a lower ¾ slot, creating solid ride and run on his FB. Pitch sat 84-87 and will only see a jump in velocity as he continues to mature, located well in any quadrant and generated several s/m. Showed the best feel we’ve seen him have for his off-speed, CB at 71-72 was very tight in his outing, looks like a FB coming out of his hand before sharply diving out of the zone, was in command of pitch and thrown at will. Also flashed developing feel for CH.

6-foot-6, 200-pound right-handed pitcher, wide, XL frame, lots of room to fill out with strength, ultra projectable. Arm action is short relative to his length, soft stab on low on the back-side, arm motion remains continuous, quick arm speed, ¾ slot, big extension down the mound allowing fastball to play up. Fastball sat 85-87, touched 88, 2400 rpm, velo continues to tick up. Curveball, 73-76, 2300 rpm, 11/5 shape, some sharp. Best outing to date at LakePoint Sports. Pitched with conviction and intent.

Uncommitted. 6-foot-4, 200-pound right-handed pitcher, highly projectable frame, long, lanky, physical lower half, lots of filling out to do. Got his first start of the season against a Madison Central (MS) lineup with several D1 bats, more than held his own. Picked up the W, going 5.2 IP, 4 H, 4 R, 7 K, 0 BB, surrendered only two runs through the first five innings. Keeps arm short on the back-side, accelerates with whip-like action to a ¾ slot. Effectively mixed FB/CB to keep opposing batters on their toes. Fastball sat 83-86, overpowering at-times. Curveball, 11/5, 69-72, threw to both sides of the plate, swing and miss.<
