Last Chance Preview – Downstate (October 28, 2018)

Tall, athletic frame with sloped upper body. Projectable build at 6-foot-3, 215-pounds. Pitching – Smooth delivery with repeatable actions. Maintains steady tempo while showing consistent body control. Stays balanced at leg lift as front knee drives up to chest height. Sinks on his backside with some shoulder tilt as hands break and he begins forward stride. Lands with clean direction towards target and front side closed. Smooth arm action with clean, high slot. Showed considerable extension out over firm front leg at release. Back flattens out as eyes stay on target and he gets back shoulder thru the catcher. Creates tough downward angle/leverage on all offerings while keeping ball down in the zone. Overall, shows some polish and feel for pitching with the chance for additional development with more strength.
