2/9/20 Pitching
Delivery Notes: Albright throws from a ¾ arm slot and creates good downhill leverage on his pitches. Delivery is pretty linear overall and shows some repeatability even though it is a little ‘funky.’
Fastball: The fastball was 83-86 mph with some life to the arm side.
Curveball: His breaking ball was 71-72 mph with curveball shape and spin. Pitch came out on fastball plane and had good depth.
Pitchability: Good feel for his two pitches. Fastball and curveball paired well together.

Body Type: 6-foot-1, 165-pound athletic, projectable frame.
Mechanical/Delivery Notes: Uptempo delivery. There are some minor timing issues that causes some inconsistencies but the arm is live and the athleticism is obvious. Has a chance to really throw it once it all comes together.
Fastball: 81-82 mph. Live  pitch. High spin rate guy with near 100% spin efficiency.
Curveball: 67-69 mph. One of the better breaking balls we saw on the day. Late, sharp bite with present swing and miss to it.
Pitchability: In/out throughout his outing.
Additional Comments: Big time arm talent. Looks the part of a high end arm. 

The top pitching prospect of the day. A southpaw with an ideal pitchers frame. Stands 5-foot-10, 150-pounds with a high waist and broad shoulders. Arm action is shorter with obvious arm speed. Fastball jumps out of hand, showing late life at 74-76 mph. Breaking ball has a 1/7 shape with some definite sharpness to it when he gets on top of it. Also tosses a playable changeup. Very promising young prospect with a bright future.
