Shane
Jelenevsky

It was a potent showing for the Maryland commit in one of his first starts in the peach state. Had the full mix on display as he struck out 6 across 5.2 IP with only 1-hit and an unearned run. Imposing extra-large frame at 6-foot-7, 245-pounds with plenty more to project and moves well down the mound. Athlete on the bump with excellent instincts and fields his position well. Budding feel for a deep five-pitch mix with with command throughout. Fastball showed heavy arm-side run at 90-91 (T92 MPH) and held velocity into the low 90’s deep into the 6th. Cutter was the go-to pitch and kept batters off balance as it played extremely well off the fastball at 79-82 with sharp movement and feel to spot anywhere in the zone. Mixed in two distinct breaking balls with a slider at 73-74 and a loopier curveball with depth at 65-68. Changeup created disappearing tumble at 82-83. Jelenevesky gives the Hawks a formidable workhorse at the top with a chance to garner a significant amount of draft helium this Spring.
