6/14/17 - Home-1^st: 4.89, Position Velocity:  OF-76, Exit Velocity: 74
6-foot-1, 165-pound, RHH has a long and rangy frame, hits from a balanced and upright stance, uses a toe-tap into a leg kick and creates a lot of movement to load, fires his hips but gets them going a little too late, swing plane is a little steep into the zone, line drive approach.  Defensively, not afraid to play through the ball aggressively with good footwork, hands are solid and he gets ride of the ball with an over-the-top arm action, good upside. 

6/14/17 - Max FB: 82, FB: 78-81, CB: 72-73,
6-foot-1, 165-pound, RHP has a long and rangy frame that shows some real projectability on the mound.  Tressler moves athletically and has plenty of room to fill out and mature.  He builds up some positive momentum through the rhythm in his motion that leads to a higher leg lift and a solid shoulder tilt.  A long and loose arm action comes through an over-the-top slot and can turn some heads.  Fastball seemed heavy and could bear down on righties.  Curveball showed almost like a slider with 11/5 to 10/4 shape.  Struggled a little with command but has tremendous upside.
