Flores provided a loud look in his bullpen after coming off a breakout sophomore season. Athletic at 6-foot-1, 195 pounds with standout body control - the Cincinnati recruit showed an electric, four-pitch arsenal. The arm action is longer and he uses his front arm as a lever to create arm speed. A dynamic mover, the delivery works in-line with a controlled violence down the slope. Flores worked his fastball at 91-93 mph, complimented by a tightly-spun, bullet slider at 82-83 mph (2778 avg spin). Flores showed a 77-81 mph curveball with downer break and 11/5 shape, while also showcasing an 82-85 mph changeup with 16.6" of horizontal break.
