8/2/2017 6-foot, 175-pound right-handed pitcher. The fastball sat 77-78 mph with arm side run to it. Controlling the fastball needs to continue to develop as he has arm strength. The spin pitch is a solid pitch, 69-70 mph and has a good shape to it. The changeup is a work in progress. The shoulders are broad and he should fill out well. 1.03 to the plate out of the stretch to control the running game. The arm works slightly above ¾. The tracking of the front shoulder needs to improve as he comes off the catcher prior to foot strike. Slight bounce in posture as he gets into leg lift, and the head tilts to glove side at times. Cleaning up his direction is important for him to tap into his full potential on the mound.
