Really liked Muirhead's quick arm, shows whip and length, ball releases with ease and has explosive actions. The right has short action in the back, separates out front of the body, up to 3/4 slot, extremely quick arm action. Fastball was up to 90 mph, sat 87-89, with carry through the zone. Changeup mirrored the fastball in actions, worked 79-81 mph. Showed 10/4 shape slider at 74 mph, and bigger breaking 11/5 curveball at 65-68 mph.
1.13.19 At 6-foot-2, 165-pounds, Muirhead is going to be a lot of fun to follow this spring. The right-hander has a fast arm with an athletic delivery, working from a high slot and long arm swing that creates tilt on his fastall at 84-86. Threw his curveball for a strike at 67-68 mph with deep break and 12/6 rotation. His changeup was 74-76.
