ustin Makowski is a 2027 SS/RHP with a wiry, projectable 6-foot, 135-pound frame and developing two-way upside. On the mound, the right-hander works with a clean, controlled delivery and shows a loose arm action through a natural slot. His fastball sits 76–77 mph (T77) with low-spin efficiency and occasional arm-side life. He mixes a 66–68 mph breaking ball with gradual shape and a 71–72 mph changeup that shows some fade with matching arm speed. Offensively, the right-handed hitter has a smooth, efficient swing with solid direction and barrel feel, generating an 88 mph max exit velocity and 80.6 mph average — pointing to current contact skills with room for more impact. Defensively, Makowski shows feel for the infield with a 75 mph arm and clean movements. An athletic mover (21.3" vertical, 1.78 10-yard split) who should benefit from physical maturity.
