Uncommitted. Has been on the rise throughout the winter and is currently ranked No. 59 in the Illinois’ 2022 class. Highly projectable 6-foot-2, 185-pound frame. Started on the mound for Huntley. Clean, short ¾ arm action. Smooth delivery, loads/drops into his back leg while keeping his stride in line. Fastball sat 84-88 with late sink and arm-side-run. Slider showed to be his best secondary pitch on this day, thrown at 74-78 mph with sharp break and feel for the bottom of the zone. Curveball is also an above-average offering at 71-74 mph, with 11/5 shape, with similar feel as the slider and a distinctly different action. Changeup was thrown from the same arm slot as his fastball at 77-79, with good downward movement. True four-pitch repertoire which profiles as a starter at the next level.
