2025 RHP Logan Ion was another good looking arm from the Windsor Selects and stood out with his size and three-pitch mix. Long, lean frame at 6-foot-5, 200-pounds and the high-¾ arm slot creates some sink to the fastball (1709rpm avg.). Breaking ball compliments it well from a similar arm-slot with gradual, downward action at 71-72mph. Also flashed a changeup at 69-70mph with downward look to it (1109rpm). Has interesting characteristics to all his pitches with a desirable frame on the mound. Will be an arm to follow West of Toronto throughout the summer.
