Zander
Sechrist

Tennessee commit. 6-foot-2, 165-pound left-handed pitcher, lean, but strong athletic proportional build narrow slightly slopes shoulders. Works out of a ¾ slot with quick, loose arm action.FB 84-87 avg command of two-seam quick AS life. Commanded four seam, down angle, direct. Uses on both on both sides of plate CB 73-76, commanded, has true CB depth, also shows SL character. Sechrist showed an advanced feel for pitching using both sides the plate with both the CB and the FB.  He used a two seam FB w/quick arm side life & 4 seem very direct down angle FB. The breaking ball had true CB depth as well as SL character. He pitched aggressively to both sides the plate throwing both theFB&CB backdoor and under a Righties hands in any count. He showed great tempo while dealing up 5 shutout innings and only 1hit. He’s not ready to go out right now, velo is light and so is the body, but the key components are firmly in place. Tennessee is getting a strong competitor.

The wiry LHP can really pitch and has a fastball that touches upper 80's and sits in the mid's.  He has feel for landing a soft breaking ball, but his feature pitch is a bugs bunny change-up that is a true weapon.  Sechrist has now pitchabiilty paired with projection left to his body.  Projection may not come fast enough for the 2020 draft, and if not look for Tennessee to be getting a quality pitcher with a chance to win a bunch of games at the next level.
