LHP Sam Finn, Plainfield North, 2026 Uncommitted. Sturdy and physically imposing 6-foot-3, 200-pounds. Got the ball to start for the Tigers and turned in a dominant performance. Simple/repeatable delivery down the mound with some athleticism to pair, tall/fall lower-half, front-side stays closed. Compact arm action, high ¾ slot with arm-speed out front. His fastball had a heavy finish to it, sitting 86-88 mph. Finn had immense feel for his 72-74 mph curveball that was sharp (2700+ rpm) with 1/7 shape, and induced whiffs. After allowing one baserunner in his first inning of work, he went on to retire the next nine batters in the order, with seven of those outs coming via strikeout. Finn will be a name to continue to follow throughout the spring. Line: 3.2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 4 BB, 9 K.
