Game Performance

Notes

Comments

6/28/21

Physical: Lean, slightly compact 5-foot-10, 165lb frame with feel for his body and room to continue adding. 

Pitching: RHP - Started off the middle of the rubber operating from the stretch-only; high leg lift with good pace, swinging down into footstrike, using the momentum out of a drop/drive approach. Landed in-line and released at H ¾ with good arm-speed, the FB ranged from 78-80 mph with consistent arm-side run (14 inches HM) and mixed a gradual 62-64 mph SL across the plate in advantage counts. Later added a killed 65-68 mph CH that showed developing command. 


4/01/21

Pitching: Works up tempo with a short side step into a leg kick out and up before sitting into back side as drives out in line, quality hip-shoulder separation into a strong front side; short arm action staying connected before getting to a clean 3/4 release. FB: Has life out of the hand flashing ride (21.6" IVB) and arm side run (21" horizontal) through the zone. CB: Big, early break with advanced movement and 11-5 shape. CH: good hand speed with up to 20.6" arm side run.
