Physical: High-waisted, projectable 6-foot-3, 185lb frame with starter’s appeal.
Pitching: RHP. Started from the stretch-only off the middle of the rubber; high leg lift and rides the slide through the back leg down the slope. Full arm circle that timed up footstrike out of a H ¾ slot. The FB landed 78-81 mph with heavy action in on righties hands, mixing short, two-plane 67-70 mph breaker, late depth. Added small fading 71-74 mph CH for strikes to round out the arsenal.
Physical: Strong, well put together, durable 6-foot-3, 185lb frame on the bump.
Pitching: RHP - Stretch-only from the middle of the rubber; momentum gaining pace, finding a balanced stack and then getting over the front-side with shoulder tilt from a H ¾ slot. The FB held the bottom of the zone with good angle at 83-85 mph, strikes, and mixed a sharp, two-plane 65-67 mph CB, flashing some extension. Added a fading 70-72 mph CH that shows potential at times. Three pitch mix, commands all three.
