Fortner looks to be a two-way player for the Statesmen, but he stood out on the mound during the event. Strong 6-foot, 185-pound frame. The right-hander operates from a simple delivery with a high leg lift. Long, whippy arm action from a ¾ arm slot. His fastball sat 86-89 mph with straight actions. He mixed in a changeup that sat 82-85 with slight sinking action. Fortner showed a cutter that sat 81-83 mph. He rounded out his four-pitch mix with a curveball that sat 76-78 mph with depth.
