8/10/19
Physically mature with present strength at 6-Foot-6, 220-Pound frame, 3/4 slot, quick arm, long arm action, good balance point, easy effort, low front side, closed toe land, kick out front foot to land, fastball 83-85 mph, arm side run in zone, stayed at bottom of zone, curveball had slider shape at times, 68-71 mph, 1-7 shape with slurve action at times, early action with gradual break, fastball arm speed with control, change up 70-73 mph, fastball arm speed, arm side action, late action at plate, feel for pitch.
8-20-17 A physically impressive 6-foot-5, 215-pound frame with some strength. Offensively, the right-handed hitter bats from a quiet and slightly open, knock-kneed set-up. Uses a moderate leg lift and small hand-pump load for timing before striding across his body, slightly uphill path with some length. In BP, shows a middle to pull-gap approach with occasional lift, mostly barrels, 83 mph exit velo. Runs a 5.15 Defensively, shows some athleticism around first base, throws are accurate using a quick release from a 3/4 slot, 64 mph. In the game, went 0-for-2 drawing two walks. On the mound, works from an abbreviated wind-up with average tempo, rhythm, and slight recoil in the finish. Arm circle is moderate coming through an over-the-top slot with quickness and some arm speed out front. Fastball sits 71-75 mph with consistent downhill tilt. In the game, Rae was consistently around the zone with very few big misses.
7/17/18 A physically impressive 6-foot-6, 220-pound frame. On the mound, the left-hander works from a controlled delivery with a moderate leg kick before driving down the mound and finishing slightly to the third base side. Arm action is long and fluid in the back coming through a high-¾ slot cleanly. Fastball sits 79-81 mph with some downhill tilt, some strikes. Curveball shows 1/7 shape with slurvy action, mostly strikes. Changeup is thrown in the zone with slight fade at 67-68 with near fastball arm speed.
