8/5/18- 5-foot-10, 150-pound left-handed pitcher. #47 player in current Iowa rankings; recent commit to Upper Iowa University. Smaller quick twitch frame. Clean compact arm action. Ball comes out well in front. Was 76-79 mph, touching 80 mph, with arm-side run and sink. Flashes depth on solid/avg. 1/7 breaking ball. Above avg. run and sink on changeup. Velo was down after long summer; previously up to 86 mph; shows ability to pitch and will be solid addition to Upper Iowa program.
3/4/18- 5-foot-10, 145-pound left-handed pitcher. Projectable left-handed arm that will make jump into 2019 rankings. Works primarily out of strength, slight crouch into balance point, lands with front foot closed and has direction to plate. Clean compact arm with quickness producing 83-86 mph fastballs, late cut action, and thrown consistently for strikes. Curveball has 1/7 shape with late sharp break; showing ability to back-foot RHH. Changeup has similar cut action as fastball; with above avg. fade. Not previously known to PBR; Albert has intriguing upside on the mound and will be followed closely going into the summer.
