RHP Jack Gianikos (Maine South, 2026) stands out immediately thanks to his long-levered, highly-projectable, 6-foot-3, 180-pound, loose-bodied frame. The arm plays loose and quick from a ¾ slot and the fastball seemed to play harder than the velo indicated (83-84.2 mph). He currently throws a curveball and a slider with the slider showing better feel and action on this day at 68-70.8 mph; plays with sweeping 10/4 shape and peaked at 2,394 rpm. His changeup was also a quality offering playing at the bottom of the zone with sink and run. Could easily see the velocity jump at any time for the upside 2026 arm.
Positional Profile: RHP/1B
Body: 6-3, 180-pounds. Highly-projectable, long, high-waisted frame. Delivery: Compact, clean, tall and fall delivery, works on-line and on balance.
Arm Action: RH. Short arm action, 3/4 slot, plays loose and quick out front.
FB: T84, 83-84 mph. Clean and easy out of the hand, late running action at times. Played around the zone. T2067, 1942 average rpm.
CB: 65-67 mph. More 11/5 shape than slider, distinct action. T2185, 2114 average rpm
SL: 68-71 mph. Plays with arm speed and intent. Tight spin, late sharp action and feel. T2394, 2161 average rpm.
CH: 73-74 mph. Quality offering, kills spin, late sink and run at the bottom of the zone. T1129, 923 average rpm.
At 6-foot-3, 180-pounds RHP Jack Gianikos (Maine South, 2026) is another arm to know from this event. Gianikos’ fastball had some life out of the hand (T18.3” VB) sitting at 82-84 mph and he threw it for strikes (80%), too. (84.3 mph max), finding the strike zone 80% of the time. Gianikos showed two different breaking balls; a curveball at 65-69 mph that spun off an 11/5 plane, and a 69-70 mph slider with heavy horizontal action (19.8” HM). To round out his four-pitch mix, Gianikos threw a 74-78 mph changeup that flashed fade from a slightly lower arm window than his fastball.

RHP Jack Gianikos (Maine South) was arguably the most projectable 2026 arm in attendance. Gianikos sports a long, loose-limbed. 6-foot-2, 165-pound and loose, quick arm. He showed control of all three of his offerings, led by his low-80s fastball that plays clean and lively out of the hand with much more to come down the road. The curveball and slider have similar traits with above-average feel for both; his curveball showed late sweeping action, averaging 2140 rpm, 15.7 average inches of horizontal movement and has a chance to be an out-pitch moving forward.
