'25 RHP Garrett Groce (Danville) was a pop-up, uncommitted junior that showed well. An ultra-projectable frame (6-foot-3, 170 pounds) and a low-effort delivery stands out immediately, and Groce showed the ability to fill the zone with above average stuff. His fastball worked at 84-86, touching 87 mph, and he showed the ability to command it. Groce showed two usable breaking balls, a tighter, 76-77 mph slider, and a 72-74 mph curveball that plays with depth. To round out a starter's mix, Gross tossed a 77-78 mph straight change, thrown with fastball arm speed. There is still significant room in the frame to hold added strength, which should translate to louder velocities. Groce is an interesting uncommitted junior follow.
