A junior arm to dream on is LHP Luke Albrecht (Brownsburg). A 6-foot-3, 180 pound frame looks the part of a next-level arm and a full, uninterrupted arm swing will allow him to keep improving. His fastball velocity has trended upwards, now sitting 83-84 mph on the heater, and he showed the ability to land a 69-72 mph curveball that has significant upside. Albrecht showed a changeup at 78-79 mph to round out his three-pitch mix. The delivery is controlled and he has made mechanical adjustments compared to looks in the fall, now working more in-line. Far from a finished product, Albrecht is an arm to follow that will continue to trend upwards.
