A guy who had flashed multiple times this summer. Mid 80s fastball generally with reports of up to 89mph. Also offers an above average breaking ball and quality changeup. Has shown advanced pitchability in the past as well. Stuff/feel will translate to the next level.
Joshua Pedersen: RHP/2B, (2022) Anderson, OH. 5-foot-11, 175-pound. On the mound, showing quick arm speed he used a high ¾ arm angle and a loose arm action. Feel type pitcher who shows easy effort. Has an athletic balance point. Curveball (66-69 mph). Produced a fastball that came in at 78-81 mph.
Joshua Pedersen: RHP/2B, (2022) Anderson, OH. 5-foot-11, 175-pound projectable frame. On the mound, showed a quick arm action and a ¾ arm angle with quick arm speed. Up-tempo type pitcher who uses easy effort. Showed an athletic balance point. Produced a fastball that came in at 84-85 mph; has arm side command and running action. His 11/5 curveball (72-74) had plus action. Showed arm side command and fading action on his changeup (80-81). Threw a 11/5 slider (73-74) with plus action.
6/16/20 Pitching
Scouting Notes:Definite follow on the mound here. Uptempo right-hander with a very loose arm. More velocity to come as he fills out that 5-foot-11, athletic frame. Fastball hovered around the 80 mph mark and he has good feel for the spin. Changeup is also well above average for class. A strike thrower that straight carved with a steady dose of all three. Going to be a good one once velo pops.
Fastball:77-79 mph
Fastball Spin Rate:1863- 2045
Breaking Ball: 68-69 mph
Break Ball Spin Rate: 1776-1985
Changeup:60-63 mph
Changeup Spin Rate:1750-1800
6/16/20 Position Player
Hit:Right-handed hitter that starts in an upright setup. Smooth, efficient pre launch movements followed by a slightly downhill path to contact. Showed feel for the barrel, squaring up most of what he pulled the trigger at in BP. Low line drive to ground ball flight for the most part.
Power:Quicker than he is strong presently but projects for more strength as he fills out his athletic frame.
Max BP Exit:85 mph
Max BP Distance: 241 ft
Offensive Projection:Multiple Roles.
Field:In the infield he plays with quick feet and some fluidity to actions. Ball skills appear to be on par for class.
Throw:Arm works with above average jump out of the hand.
Defensive Projection:Multiple spots.

2/22/20 Position Player
Hit: Solid athletic stance with fast quick bat twitch. Hands glide through the zone keeping the bat on a level path.
Power: 85mph exit velo with a max distance of 291 feet.
Offensive Projection: Line drive hitter that can use all parts of the field.
Field: Covers tons of range, struggles with staying under control transitioning into throwing at times. A lot of potential with the glove.
Throw: 74mph infield velo.
Defensive Projection: MIF.
Delivery Notes: An overall smooth delivery that builds speed as it unfolds. Very quick from the stretch and keeps a steady pace from the
windup. A higher ¾ arm action that is fluid throughout.
Fastball: 77-80mph with a 1700-1900rpm spin rate on Rapsodo.
Curveball: 70-71mph with a 1800-2000rpm spin rate on Rapsodo with 10-4 movement.
Changeup: 72-74mph, tumbles through the zone.
