Danny Cihocki, RHP, Princeton (IL), 2023
The Lakers top pitching prospect, Cihocki is a true freshman up to 89 mph with mid-2300s RPM. Clean, compact arm action on an athletic 6-foot-3, 180-pound frame. Good shape to his 76-77 mph curve and very good feel for a fading changeup at 81-82 with spin in the 1600s. Projectable arm/body type with high likelihood of adding velocity in the near future.

RHP Danny Cihocki (Princeton, 2023) gave an intriguing look on the mound with a jumping fastball up to 86 mph from a deceptive high ¾ window. He also went to two different breaking balls; a slider at 72-75 mph and a curveball at 72-73 mph. To finish off his arsenal, Cihocki went to a changeup at 76-78 mph. Cihocki struck out three in his three innings of work.
