4/9/2019 Spring Scout Blog: 6-foot-9, 220 pounder had an 11K performance against conference rival No.2 Western Tuesday evening. Fulton sat 83-84, topping out at 86. His breaking ball was sharp with late break at 70-72.  He had trouble locating the fastball, but was able to get ahead of hitters with a large amount of breaking balls. FInal Line: 6.2IP, 3R, 7H, 2BB, 3HBP, 11K. Tennessee commit.

6/13/2017:  6-foot-9, 220 pound right-hander sat 81-84, topping 85 with the fastball in his inning of work.  Huge frame, clean arm swing.  Creates big down angle on his fastball, coming from a high ¾ slot.  Aggressive in the strike zone.  Breaking ball sat 71-74, showing improved shape/depth, but still lacks consistency.    Raw actions but plenty of room to develop into his frame.

4/12/2017: 6'9", 220 pound sophomore RHP sat 83-84, touching an 85 in his first two innings of work. The big bodied, right hander threw with downhill tilt on the baseball and the fastball showed late life with arm side sink, resulting in 14 groundball outs. CB was 65-67, average shape to it and pitch got better as the night went on but at times backed off of it. Uncommitted arm has big upside. Still very raw, but arm is clean and has a chance to continue adding strength and velocity. Threw second complete game of the season, giving up 2 ER on 5 hits, striking out 3 and walking 2.

6/22/2015: 6-foot-7, 185 pounds, pitches from a high ¾ slot with average arm speed.  Has some stiffness in the arm action.  Show some effort with some rhythm in the tall to fall delivery.  Level shoulders and stays in line.  Lands square. Finishes upright.  Fastball was straight at 72-74.  Breaking ball sat 62-65 with a 2/8 shape, gradual sweeping action.  Changeup sat 63-67 with occasional sink.
