Strong frame with added strength coming. Clean arm action with a cutoff circle and good extension. Fastball worked 88-89, topping 90, with life and late glove-side action. Blended breaking ball spun around 2300 with flashes of quality shape. Looked impressive on the mound; arm speed is there and velocity should continue to tick up.

Logan Starnes, Dripping Springs (TX), 2028 Positional Profile: RHP/3B RHS great build/frame to add strength. Solid delivery and arm action. Around zone with stuff. Developing FB will have ability to play up/down in zone. Ability to spin baseball, will have solid secondary in both CB and SL/cutter.

Projects well physically. Delivery: Side step rocker, plant foot floats across rubber to 1st base side. High knee lift with inward turn, nice job of using lower 1/2 in delivery.

T2285, 2082 average rpm. CB: 71-75 mph. Can spin baseball. Varies action from early slurvy/sweepy type to short action with more slider type finish.
