2/18/18 Starts square on the rubber. Simple, repeatable delivery. Throws from ¾ slot with long arm action. Tough matchup for left-handed hitters with arm slot. Fastball shows occasional cut at 73-75 mph. Slows down arm action on changeup, which has some movement to the arm side. Locates it in the zone. Breaking ball shows sweeping type action across the zone at 58-60 mph. Works on two-planes. Definitely his best secondary offering at present. Also mixed in a 61-62 mph knuckleball that showed some tumble but wasn’t consistently in the zone. Changeup has some arm side run at 63-64 mph. At first base he fields from a wider based stance that can become more fluid and allow him to attack balls sooner and more effectively. Glove was average and fielded each attempt fine. Gets rid of the ball quickly after fielding it allowing for smoother double play transitions. Recorded a 70 mph throwing velocity across the diamond. Liked what I saw from Bragg at the plate. A smooth swinger from the left side. Pre launch movements are efficient and well timed, creating both balance/separation at foot strike. Does a nice job of staying balanced throughout swing and shows well above average natural tools through the zone. His ability to lift the ball naturally combined with natural tools make him a middle of the lineup candidate. 60-yard dash: 8.16 Infield Velocity: 70 Exit Velocity: 84
