8/19/16 Central Bucks East 2017 RHP worked quickly and effectively sitting 81-84 out of a 3/4 arm slot with a chest-high leg lift. 11/5 breaking curveball was effective at 65-68 and could become a quality secondary offering if thrown harder. Silverstein also commanded a 65 mph changeup as a third pitch in his arsenal striking out three in two innings of scoreless work.
7/20/16 Projectable 6-foot-4, 190-pound frame. Rhythmic delivery includes a chest-high leg lift, with high lead arm and front foot kicked toward home plate. Pitches out of a high three-quarter slot and cuts off extension at times. Fastball at 80-84 was down a couple ticks from the 84-86 that he showed in a bullpen three weeks prior. Slow curveball at 60-63 is still in the developmental stage, while he did not feature his change-up at 63-64 very often (both pitches also down in velocity from three weeks ago).
6/29/16 Long-limbed, 6-foot-4, 185-pounder with a projectable frame sat 84-86 out of a 3/4 arm slot. He throws his 11/5 breaking curveball from a low elbow slot causing it to flatten out at times, but he sells his 68 mph changeup with solid arm speed and the pitch displayed arm-side run.
