7/15/23

6-foot-2, 190-pound with a filled-in frame. Delivery is repeatable with good tempo. Arm is loose and flexible from a long, ¾ slot. Uses an above-average spinning fastball at 2400+ rpm at 81-83 mph. The breaking ball ranges at 62-67 mph and was tough for opposing hitters to pick up.

Klicker previously showed well at the Top Tier Scout day, and was impressive in our staff's first in-game look at him. Projectable 6-foot-2, 150-pound frame. Fastball played in the low-to-mid 80s, T85 mph. Displayed advanced feel for spin, T2500 RPM on the fastball. Curveball worked in the low 70s and flashed out-pitch potential. An arm to watch as he still has plenty of room for added muscle with an already impressive repertoire.

RHP/1B Merek Klicker (Morris, 2025) showed well on the mound in this look. Klicker had a clean and fluid operation on the mound with feel to spin the baseball. His fastball ran up to 82.9 mph with a max spin rate of 2505 rpm (3rd-best at event). Klicker also spun his curveball at a high-rate (2465 rpm) and landed it for strikes, and flashed a developing changeup.

A couple of 2025 right-handed arms to keep an eye on are Pablo Herrera (Plainfield South) and Merek Klicker (Morris).
