Mueller

Body Type: 5-foot-10, 180 pounds. Sturdy build.

Mechanical/Delivery Notes: Has a ¾ arm slow with average mechanics and arm action. Can benefit from more fluidity in movements. Produces a high leg kick out and showed a slower paced tempo in his delivery.

Fastball: 65-70 mph. Threw it around the zone for the most part. Not much movement on it right now.

Curveball: 60-64 mph. Average break to it with 1-7 movement. At times looked to force the movement out of release rather than just throwing it.

Changeup: 58-62 mph. Developing further as he improves grip. Playable now.

Pitchability: Lefty has a good build to him and picking up the intent can get more out of his abilities. Command can improve for each pitch overall, but fastball was his better pitch at this outing.

Role: TBD.

A southpaw on the mound. Maintains tempo/rhythm throughout his delivery. Arm action is clean, moving through a high-¾ slot. Fastball will stay mostly true through the zone, using both sides of the plate 66-72 mph.  Throws his changeup with confidence and feel. The pitch comes in the zone at 60-62 mph. Breaking ball showed developing depth/sharpness on a 1/7 plane at 57-58 mph. At the plate he swings it from the left side, showing a smooth/compact stroke. Natural tools are on par for class. Tends to get around the ball at times. Produced natural ball flight when he stayed inside. At first base he gets off the bag with slower, controlled footwork. Does a nice job varying his depth to get the hop he wants. Ball skills fit the spot. Looks to have solid feel for the position.

60-yard dash: 7.71
