Notes

4/15/24
Rock Valley JC commit. Stands in at a high-waisted 6-foot-1, 172-pounds and got the start for the Mustangs, tossing a complete game and earning the win. McGrath pounded the zone and attacked hitters throughout the game. His fastball worked in the 80-84 mph range, inducing weak contact and playing effectively at the top of the zone. His main go-to secondary offering was an upper 60’s 11/5 curveball that kept the Caravan hitters off balance. Final line: W, CG, 7 IP, 6 H, 2 BB, 2 ER, 6 K.
9/05/23

Verbally committed to Rock Valley JC.

5/26/23

Uncommitted. In the Mustang’s 5-1 win over Maine South, McGrath shined. He threw a complete game, struck out six, walked one, allowed one run and six hits.

2/17/23

RHP Christian McGrath (St. Rita, 2024) is a 6-foot, loose-armed follow in the state’s junior class. Up to an 84 mph high, McGrath has an efficient four-seamer that works well alongside a short, 12/6 type breaking ball, and he has a deceptive changeup thrown at arm speed that fades hard arm-side.

2/12/23

Positional Profile: RHP
Body: 6-0, 172-pounds. Some present strength, developed lower-half.
Delivery: High leg lift into a coiled balance, drop/drive lower-half that works in-line.
Arm Action: RH. Long out of the glove into a high 3/4 slot.
FB: T84, 81-83 mph. Life out of the hand with some carry.  T2014, 1889 average rpm.
CB: 67-69 mph. Gradual 11/5 shape, flashed sharp. T2008, 1892 average rpm.
CH: 68-70 mph. Some fading action to the arm-side.  T1567, 1515 average rpm.
