Wide frame with long arms and room for added strength. Wide shoulders. Simple delivery. Long arm action with smooth tempo as he throws. Low 3/4 release point creates good run/sink on his FB. CB and CH should both develop into quality pitches. Will be especially tough match-up for left-handed hitters.

Hands held high at ear height with flat bat, a little movement with the pitch. Toe lift to engage with minimal to no stride. Flat swing plane with slight incline at contact. One arm extension finish. 78 MPH exit velocity. Pitching - Above belt high leg kick, releases from a high 3/4- slot. Prior to release, shoulders square transitioning to over the top follow through with high leg kick. Smooth, semi-quick tempo, comfortable delivery. Clean athletic arm-action with a fastball range of 79-81 MPH, with signs of more velocity in the tank. Widenor is young, good build with projectable numbers.
