CLASS OF 2028

As intriguing as any in the class, Pulley brought a power look with a sturdy-hipped, physical, 6-foot-2, 190-pound frame. Getting to a tall, inward turn with a methodical-paced double pump, Pulley exploded from the top of the lift while driving off the rubber with authority to a slightly open-toed land. The arm action gets deep and his hips power a loose, fast arm that produced true sink on an 89-90 mph heater. He controlled the heater well, and executed a quality change at 77-80 also. The breaking ball has a real chance to be a pro plus, spinning in the 2800s on average and into the 3000+ territory, but the execution was minimal as he backed it up consistently, a familiar miss. The stuff is some of the best in the class here, though the control is fringy at best to this point and will be monitored closely this spring and summer.

Frame / Athleticism: Long-limbed, 6-foot-2, 185 pounder. Above average to better strength for the age. Frame could hold plenty, likely ends up with a physical look as strengh is added. Stuff: FB 82-84 with heavy arm-side run, averaging 16.2". 2S fastball tunnels with advanced spin. Best breaking ball at the event, though got around it at times and dropped slot. There is big two-plane shape at 73-74 with over 2600 spin. Should be a really advanced pitch and good combo. His changeup played with big fade, softer at 65-69. He showed average control for all three. Arm Action / Delivery: Double pump into a tucked, tall, deep inward turn. Uncoils in-line. Hips are explosive and lead to quality hip-to-shoulder. Explosive mover for age in total. Loose arm gets deep at times. Present arm speed to a wider L3/4 to 3/4 slot. Summation: There is a lot to like here - beginning with the present day stuff. He had the best breaking ball of the event - it is going to be a really good pitch. He's been up to 86 with a big arm-side run fastball and its easy to project out 90-plus when strength gets added to the present day projectable frame. These pitches are advanced, and the changeup has plenty of upside, while they all profile well together. The hips are really good and make projections of even high velocities promising and the arm works. He swings open at times leading to control issues, a refinement that will surely be made.

One of the more advanced arms we have identified in the 2028 class thus far. His 6-foot-2 frame has a chance to be really physical when its all said and done plus it already holds some strength in the lower half. He coils atop his leg lift to allow the hips to power the delivery, and his arm works clean on the backside in a longer fashion, producing a mid-80s sinker that topped at 86. The power-armed youngster found success with a 71-74 mph slider, his best pitch at the moment and very advanced for the age, and it already spins into the 2500s. Pulley found the zone at an above average clip with advanced stuff for the age, an exciting freshman follow that will debut as a highly ranked player in the class when 2028 state rankings release.

‘28 RHP Bodhi Pulley (Canes Midwest National) - 5-foot-11, 185 pounder. Stood out with arm strength on the mound, some of the best pure arm strength we’ve seen of any ‘28 thus far. Sinking fastball worked up to 81 mph. Flashed feel for a mid-60s slider with sweep.
