5/18/16 Game Notes: 6-foot-3 170 pound Freshman went 4IP allowing 2R on 3H and striking out 4 Wednesday evening against an experienced Columbus East squad. Good, athletic pitcher's frame. Quick arm from a 3/4 slot is longer than when we saw him this winter. Fastball had late arm side run 80-85 in the first, 81-84 in the second and third. Throws with some effort and command became an issue later in the game. Curveball is thrown with near FB arm speed 66-72 and 11/5 shape. Can be an out pitch when thrown with some velocity. Tendency to guide it at times. Slows arm to throw change up.  Advanced pitchability and IQ for a 2019.
