The young RHP showed good glimpses of potential in his outing this weekend. Slender build with high coordination allows for his operation to be very clean and repeatable. Ran the FB up to 87 mph on the day, while sitting mostly 83-85 mph. From a true ¾ arm slot, Meckna has potential on the mound while having a body to dream on. High level 2024 prospect.
