7/16/20
6-foot, 145-pound right-handed pitcher. The fastball sat 74-75 mph with minimal arm side action to it. The spin pitch is big in shape, sitting 62-63 mph, it needs the addition of fastball hand speed to the pitch. The changeup is a developing pitch at 65-67 mph. The delivery is online with the feet and the slot is above 3/4 in height. The tracking of the front shoulder is offline as he goes into foot strike. He spins through the delivery causing him to be stretched out at foot strike, .The glove also has a significant amount of pull to it as he gets into foot strike. The arm works free and clean, a few minor adjustments would aid the process.
