8/15/22

Cape Cod: Enjoyed a very brief stint with Brewster before joining up with the Collegiate National Team. McGraw worked 11 innings in two starts, striking out 12 and allowing nine hits while working with a 93-95 mph fastball and, when on, one of the better sliders in the 2023 MLB draft class – a low-80s breaker with 2700-2800 rpm spin rates a very good deception off the fastball. McGraw is a potential first round arm when he's at his best, but will need to continue to improve his consistency in execution through next spring

7/05/22

USA CNT: A classic case of an unpolished Northern arm improving steadily in a power conference, McGraw struggled with his control as a freshman from Oneonta, N.Y., then took a nice step forward as a sophomore, going 5-2, 4.08 with 67 strikeouts in 70.2 innings, though his walk rate remained on the high side (38 BB). He worked two scoreless innings at training camp, successfully navigating some traffic on the basepaths, then dominated in a scoreless three-inning relief stint in Haarlem, striking out four without issuing a walk and yielding just one hit. Physical and super athletic at 6-2, 210 pounds, McGraw can flash top-10-pick stuff, it’s just a matter of continuing to harness it all. His fastball sat 93-95 in our summer look with low sinkerball spin rates, which should help him rack up groundball outs. His slider has a chance to be one of the best in the class, flashing plus at 82-83 mph with excellent tilt and tight spin in the 2700-2800s. Once he got it going in Durham, he showed the ability to land it for a backdoor strike against lefties or a frontdoor strike against righties, as well as using it as a back-foot swing-and-miss pitch against lefties. He also showed good feel for an 87-88 mph changeup that he used to record a strikeout against LSU’s Tre’ Morgan. Like Lowder, McGraw has an exciting three-pitch arsenal, he just lacks Lowder’s polish. His delivery can get out of sync, as his arm seems to get stuck behind his body at times, causing him to miss arm side. But the more he pitches, the better he should get, and he could wind up being the biggest star of this group when it’s all said and done.

Cape Cod: Worked 92-95 mph with his heavy fastball, which has knee-buckling arm-side run at time, with low spin rates around 2000 rpm (typical of quality sinkers). He complements it with a hard 80-83 mph slider that played both in and out of the zone, with filthy hard tilt at times and tight spin in the 2800-2900 rpm range. McGraw also showed us an effective changeup that he throws with conviction at 88-90 mph, and it has good fade and deception despite its firmness. In our look, he was able to use the changeup as a third swing-and-miss pitch as well as land it for a strike. McGraw is not yet a finished product, and his high walk rate held him back as a true freshman this past spring, and he started to get hit in the fourth inning of our look this summer once he began to leave his fastball out over the heart of the plate. But his three-quarters delivery works, and he has a chance to throw three plus pitches, so if his command continues to improve he has a chance to be a first-round talent for the 2023 draft, with top-10-picks upside if it really clicks.

Future Games: The athletic 6-foot-2 180 pound RHP showed quite possibly the top slider at the event; several times it was used to escape a jam as FB command varied over his two innings. Fielded his position well and the ease that his arm works would point to continued velocity gains in the future. Fastball sat 87-88, touching 89 MPH while the slider checked in at 76-68 with more lateral action then the depth he showed at Cooperstown the week before.

7/24/18

Call to the Hall: Toes the rubber at 6-foot-2 180 pounds with a frame that will hold additional gains. Quiet pace to delivery with a center rubber to arm side set up. Long arm action; 3/4 slot with some fall off to his finish (1B side). Fastball was electric at 88-89 MPH, clipping 90 MPH a couple of times. Used his slider often over two innings pitched with late, razor blade action at 82-83 MPH; was able to spot, expand and used to the backdoor vs. LHH. Flashed a change at 80-81 that had late comeback action to his glove side. Chewed through six committed hitters during his outing.

6/20/18

6-feet-2, 180-pounds, athletic frame with significant projection left. Pitching - Mechanically sound and effortless delivery. Repeatable, smooth actions. Stays balanced at leg lift. Weight stays back getting into stride. Finishes with balance and extension. Arm action is quick and fluid. Works from a high ¾ release. Creates tough downward angle on all of his offerings. FB sat 85-87 MPH, topped at 88. Comes out easily with good command. SL is above average offering and has depth with late vertical break at 75-76 MPH. CH needs development but shows potential at 79-80 MPH. Overall, high level pitching prospect who projects to have an above average 3 pitch mix. Futures Games participant.
