Hobbs works with an up-tempo pace on the mound from his balance point, moving into a drop/drive lower-half while remaining in-line to the plate in his stride, shoulders remaining level throughout the operation, front foot lands square. His fastball worked in the 83-87 mph range, topping out at 88 mph on his last bullet; playing heavy with life through the zone.

His final offering was a running changeup at 77-80 mph, playing with horizontal fading action and thrown with fastball intent.
