2/22/23

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.

2/18/23

Positional Profile: RHP/1B
Body: 6-2, 165-pounds. Proportional frame with room for growth.
Delivery: Fluid delivery, stays closed at balance point, aggressive at foot strike.
Arm Action: RH. Loose, quick arm 3/4 slot.
FB: T83, 81-82 mph. Lively pitch, gets late arm-side life at times. T2209, 2108 average rpm.
CB: 66-68 mph. Above-average feel, thrown with intent, late sweeping action, potential go-to offering. T2199, 2140 average rpm.
SL: 66-68 mph. Similar action and velocity to curveball. Lands for strikes consistently. T2154, 2097 average rpm. 

8/21/22

Positional Profile: RHP/1B
Body: 6-1, 145-pounds. High-waisted frame with room to fill out.
Delivery: High athletic leg-lift into balance point, drop/drive lower-half, stays on back-knee throughout stride, remains in-line to the plate.
Arm Action: RH. Short arm out of the glove into a high 3/4 slot.
FB: T75.9, 74-76 mph. Running action to the arm-side. T1989, 1913 average rpm.
CB: 61-65 mph. Flashed sharp 11/5 shape with depth. T2087, 2022 average rpm.
SL: 62-64 mph. Shorter 10/4 shape. T2066, 2006 average rpm.
