The setup is even in base, front foot steps into the swing as the ball approaches. The path is long to contact and the frame needs added strength to aid the bat. On the mound, the fastball sat 71-72 mph. The spin pitch was 65-66 mph and big in shape. The changeup is a developing pitch. The delivery is online and the slot is above 3/4.
