McCrae
Wiest

06.19.18
Projectable frame, lean with a high waist, 6-foot-4, 185-pounds. Works from a near over-the-top slot, the right-hander sat 86-88 with downward tilt to his fastball, he had a sharp 12/6 curveball with tight spin at 72-74 mph, and worked his changeup at the bottom of the strike zone at 75-76 mph.  Wiest has a slow tempo in his windup, brings the ball and glove over his head on his rocker step, breaks his hands over his knee, he as a long loose arm stroke, and has a tall upper body posture in his finish. McCrae showed feel for all three pitches and has a simple linear delivery out of the stretch with similar velocity, movement, and feel for all three of his pitches.  With his loose arm action and the projectable frame, Wiest still has not reached his ceiling velocity-wise.
