2/15/20
2/15/20 Pitching Delivery Notes: On the mound Whetzel uses a fairly quick tempo down the mound and has a bit of a crossfire action to his delivery. He throws from a low ¾ arm slot that creates some good natural deception with his delivery. Fastball: The fastball was 79-81 mph and mostly true through the zone. Fastball Spin Rate: 1640-1720 Curveball: His breaking ball was 65-67 mph with slurvey shape and decent depth and bite at times. Curveball Spin Rate: 2000-2170 Changeup: The changeup was 69-73 mph.
2/15/20 Position Player Hit: At the plate Whetzel uses a leg kick load and has a bit of an armbar during his load. He takes a flat bat path to the ball but drives his barrel fairly well through the zone at times. Top BP Exit Velocity: 83.3 mph Top BP Distance: 235 feet Offensive Projection: TBD Field: At 3B Whetzel waits on the ball and shows minimal footwork and timing to the ball. He fields the ball in a wide stance and limits his opportunities to use his athleticism. Throw: 81 mph across the diamond. Defensive Projection: TBD
