Positional Profile: RHP/OF RHP…will get stronger. Look for velocity to increase. FB shows life, nice down plane, will be able to execute up in zone with increased velocity. Feel for CB present, command in zone must be improved, can develop into swing and miss pitch. Change feel present.
Body: 5-11, 180-pounds. Solid build/frame with room to add. Lower showing some now strength.
Delivery: 1st base side start with cross step delivery. Side step rocker, nice job of using lower. Solid finish.
Arm Action: RH. Cutoff circle to backside, fair arm speed. HTQ slot with avg extension, solid finish.
FB: T86, 82-85 mph. Fair plane showing avg life to arm side, baby comeback life to glove side. Solid spin, with added velocity will be able to execute FB up in zone. T2400, 2241 average rpm.
CB: 69-74 mph. Solid spin showed depth to action. Varies tilt, showing some feel to manipulate. Inconsistent landing in zone. T2389, 2336 average rpm.
CH: 74-78 mph. Tail/sink with fair deception, avg future. T2229, 2128 average rpm.
Positional Profile: RHP/OF Posten is a two way talent showing upsides on both sides of the ball with a solid three pitch selection. As he continues to put on size and strength through his last year and a half of ball, his numbers will likely improve.
Body: 5-10, 162-pounds.
Delivery: OTT release. Works out of the windup, slow and controlled delivery. A lot of bag leg knee bend to create power.
Arm Action: RH. Clean and efficient arm action, comes out of hand well.
FB: T84, 82-83 mph. More of a rising fastball, plays up in the zone. T2396, 2265 average rpm.
SL: 76-77 mph. Good movement, late drop out of the zone. T2294, 2294 average rpm.
CH: 78-78 mph. Not super comfortable with it. Will be a great pitch to have to mix it up against better hitters. T1843, 1835 average rpm.
ATH: 7.38 runner in the 60. 1.71 and 4.01 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. 26.30 max vertical.
