One of the more talented unsigned arms in his class. The right-hander has a projectable frame with room to add. Delivery is fluid, requiring little effort. Arm action is long and loose. Fastball jumps out of his hands with late life. Sat 84-87 mph and looks to have more to come. Breaking ball is sharp and he has feel for it. The pitch moves on an 11/5 plane and has some swing and miss to it. A scholarship type arm with a high ceiling.
FB: 84-87 CB: 69-70 CH: 81-82
6/6/17 A right-handed pitching prospect in the 2018 class. Delivery is fluid and requires some effort. Arm has some whip to it as it moves through near high-¾ slot with obvious arm speed. Fastball sat 84-89 mph with noticeable arm side run. Spins an 11/5 shaped breaking ball at 70-71 mph. The offering has good spin to it as it drops of the table with depth.
2/18/17 A definite arm to follow in the 2018 class. Souder has an uptempo delivery that requires some effort. His slinging arm action put heavy run and sink on his 83-87 mph fastball. Changeup has similar run and sink, while maintaining arm speed. Has decent feel for the 77-78 mph offering. Spins a 10/4 shaped breaking ball that is tight with depth at 72-76 mph.
5/31/16 6-foot-3, 200-pound projectable, strong build. On the mound he works exclusively from the stretch. Showed smooth tempo to a delivery he is able to repeat. Some effort to his delivery. Has long arm action with average armspeed at this stage. Working through a high-3/4 slot his fastball sat 78-81 mph. Spins an 11/5 breaking ball that has signs of sharpness and decent depth to it at 69-70 mph. Also showed feel for a 71-72 mph changeup while maintaining fastball armspeed.
9/29/19 Body Type: 6-foot-3, 225-pound projectable frame. Mechanical/Delivery Notes: Uptempo delivery that requires very little effort. 3/4 righty with obvious arm speed. Fastball: His best offering. Jumps out of the hand with very little effort. Up to 91 mph with substantial run on the heater. Breaking Ball: Above average stuff wise. Used the pitch to freeze righties and backdoor lefties. 73-75 mph. Pitchability: Threw strikes. Additional Comments: Like his chances of ending back at the D1 level. Big time fastball that is good enough to be an out pitch on its own with that combination of velo/movement. Youngstown State transfer.
