8/5/15
Right-handed pitcher who is long and lanky, the fastball has boar and action to it at 81.  Breaking ball is short and tight, sitting at 73. Showed command of the breaking pitch as well. Changeup cuts at 75 as he needs to get the rotation of it straightened out. The frame is outstanding as he's long and athletic. The delivery is easy with a leg lift and long arm swing.  The feet have crossfire to them which hurts his ability to tap into his full fastball velocity. Slight adjustments with his feet would aid his progression. 3/4 slot is clean and on time.

Excellent athlete with a long, wiry frame.  Pitches with a long and loose arm action. Fastball has life to it, in the mid 80's.  The spin pitch is very good, its a short slider in the mid 70's now and could be an out pitch with advancement.  The changeup is a work in progress but he has some feel for it.  Swings the bat from a balanced set up and an upright posture. Hands work and are loose.  Should be an interesting pitcher to follow as I believe his future could be on the mound.
