Takasaki

RHP Mark Takasaki (Jacobs) has a 6-foot-2, 185-pound, athletic, strong frame and showed one of the livelier fastballs on the day. The pitch came out of the hand clean and easy with late jump and sat at 86-87 mph with some play at the top of the zone. He is still rounding out his arsenal but it's a live arm to keep an eye on moving forward.
