The UT signee took the mound against a quality FM Marcus team. His fastball velo was down a little, sitting 87-89 but he still turned in a quality outing. He relied on his secondary stuff, especially his wipeout slider. He threw it in the upper 70’s and generated a lot of swing and miss in and out of the strike zone. Grubbs’ FB command is what always separates him from the rest. He has the ability to really work all quadrants of the strike zone. As the velo rises this spring, Grubbs will be tough to beat.

In his final tune up before the regular season, Grubbs looked like a guy in total control of what he is trying to accomplish. The Texas signee had a very business-like approach to the outing. His fastball was 87-88 T89, with plenty more in the tank. He showed good command of it, especially burying it under Righties hands. When it is right, it has serious sink and ASR and is tough to elevate. He threw an upper 70’s SL that he could drop in for a strike and have the ability to bury it when he wanted to put a hitter away. He also has an avg. change up that has the same action as the fastball. Watching Grubbs maturation over the last few years has been fun, and he has grown into one of the premier arms in North Texas.
