Verano has a broad-shouldered athletic build at 5-foot-11 185-pounds. Ran the 60 in 7.38 seconds, recorded an exit velocity of 90 MPH. Physically gifted already as a 2019, was one of the most impressive athletes at the event. On the mound, topped at 82. Fastball sat mostly 79-81. Curveball had 11/5 depth at 66-67. Loose, quick arm. Ball jumps on hitters in the box from a high-3/4 slot. Quickness of arm projects a jump in velocity as he continues to polish as a pitcher. Slow, methodical delivery into a, athletic balance point. Low front side as he descends down the mound. Explodes to home plate, almost jumping at the batter. Recoil on finish, drifts to first base side of rubber. Ball had some natural armside run. Changeup showed some sink at 70-71. At the plate, possesses a powerful right-handed swing. Potential two-way guy at the next level. At the plate, starts in a wide stance and slight crouch. Hands above back shoulder and close to ear with bat parallel to ground . Uses a leg lift and stride to start swing. Hands load straight back. Smooth and explosive swing and finish. Creates some lift.
