Relaxed stance, really comfortable in the box. Moves his hands directly back, while bringing his elbow to parallel and creating some torque from his hips. Explosive lower half, punished balls all over the field, consistent exit velos in the 90’s. One of the top rounds of the day. On the bump, Accardo has a gradual start to his delivery with an aggressive finish. Moves his hands in sync with his leg kick. Once he engages the backside, bends at the hips and drops his arm slot, coming at you from a true ¾. Slot creates a ton of run on his FB and CH. Ran the FB up to 87 MPH, while the CH was in the 71-74 MPH. CB had sharper lateral action at 68-71 MPH.
