MD Preseason All State

6-foot-1, 145-pound long thin athletic frame. Delivery starts with a small rocker step and pace has rhythm and control. Consistent balance point with hands set low, shoulders level moving down the mound, and lands on line from a down and out delivery. Average arm circle throwing from a three-quarter arm slot. Normal effort within the mechanics and a bit or an arm recoil at finish. Fastball was 75-76 and topped at 77. Changeup was downhill at 68-70 with average arm speed, but backside stuck and could benefit from finishing the pitch with the lower half. Curveball speed was 58-61 mph. Curveball arm speed slowed a little which caused the significant speed difference, but shape showed some promise if there was present arm speed and the pitch was finished.
