05.21.17 Big bodied lefty, physically imposing at 6-foot-4, 215 pounds. Fastball ranged 70-73. Showed a feel for the strike zone but was elevated. Curveball and change are both serviceable pitches allowing for a three pitch mix. Breaking ball sat 64-66 with early 2/8 shape. Kept fastball hand speed, disguising the pitch early. The change worked 66-68 with deception in the arm and a feel for the zone. Works from an over-the-top slot with a long arm swing, showing some stiffness, with the head leaving the line at release. There is effort and the arm speed needs to improve to forecast a jump. Works level, in-line, finishing with some athleticism. Somewhat nimble for the big frame, ran a 7.28 sixty.
