6-foot-1, 155-pound, lean, wiry right-handed pitcher got the start for Waubonsie. Despite tough results, Liyeos warrants a follow status moving forward. Clean, repeatable tall and fall delivery, lands on-line and finishes upright. Upside arm action, loose and whippy from a ¾ slot. Ability to spin the baseball at an above-average clip. Fastball worked mostly straight, sat 80-83 mph and spun between 2300-2432 rpm. Mixed in a slurvy breaking ball that works 10/4 with sweeping action, feel and has topped at 2744 rpm in the past. Upside right-handed arm to follow in the 2023 class.
