Luke
Sinnard

Six-foot-8 sophomore right-hander Luke Sinnard took the mound next for Indiana. The Western Kentucky transfer impressed with a leveraged high-spin fastball up to 94 mph and rpm in the 2700s. He also worked a quick inning, throwing 10 pitches for a three up, three down scoreless inning.

Western Kentucky Commit. 6-foot-7 250-pounds. Large, power frame with an easy delivery. Clean arm action, commanding the zone. He went 5.2IP with 2 H 1 ER and 13 strikeouts. Fastball worked up to 91. Settled in at 85-88. Had a power breaking ball at 74-75 to go with the heavy fastball. Much more to come for Sinnard with his frame and strong arm.

Western Kentucky Commit; 6-foot-7, 250-pounds imposing, XL frame with long limbs and great projection. Strong, efficient delivery working downhill with light effort. FB worked 84-88, T89 that jumps on hitters.  Showed improvements in CB at 73-74 with better shape and biting definition.  Hard Splitter at 78-80 with good deception and diving late into the zone.  

The 6-foot-7, 250-pound right hander was a late addition to the rankings after flashing an explosive fastball at 87-90 in some bullpen work at Ward Performance Institute. Towering frame with great projectability and long limbs. Arm works to high 3/4 slot and fastball jumps out the hand, really gets good extension.  Developing a curveball with good velocity (73-76) and chance to be a put away pitch in future.  Currently though, Sinnard’s best secondary is a splitter at 80-82 with good depth and late bite.  Threw several where the bottom fell out for a swing and miss offering.  Jumped to the top of the board for the position group.
