3/27/24
Physical and athletic 6'1" 180 lbs. frame. The LSU recruit has been a household name for quite some time and turned in an eye-opening performance last Wednesday against St. Frederick. Downs logged a three inning shutout relief appearance with 2 BB and 3 K's, and showed big-time arm talent, as he ran his FB up to 91 mph, sitting 87-90 mph with spin rates up to 2497 RPM's. His 72-76 mph CB had good shape and with some continued work and refinement, it has the chance to be a swing & miss offering in the future. Downs also took some good hacks at the plate and connected for an opposite field double, further proving why he's currently the top two-way prospect in the state's 2027 class.
