Andrew
Lyon

The son of former MLB pitcher, Brandon Lyon and the younger brother of Isaac Lyon, who is a rising sophomore at Grand Canyon U. With these types of bloodlines, one would expect Andrew has picked up a thing or two about pitching. A former neighbor of Jeff Scholzen, Andrew grew up and continues to be around a plethora of next level players in his community, with over A DOZEN, current college commits and college baseball players. Andrew will be in the PBR Future Games, and receive attention no doubt, with his 6-3 180 ideal size and assortment of pitches. A controlled tall and fall delivery with a flexible high kick to his delivery, Lyon gets the ball out of the glove clean and is fluid through the slot with ext out front. The FB registered 85-88 at the Top Prospect games and his best secondary pitch was his father’s as well, that being a avg to solid avg CH 77 that shows promise to play plus in time, as his velocity climbs and the separation becomes more apparent with the FB/CH combo. The CH shows FB arm speed and deception, along with fading sink life and is able to kill the spin and create depth at the end. Keep an eye out for this kid, as he shows definite D1 potential with added development physically and arm strength wise. 

The son of former big league RHP, Brandon Lyon and the younger brother of two way SS/RHP, Isaac Lyon, who's a freshman at Grand Canyon U. Andrew's future is on the mound, and was thrown into the fire as a freshman in the 4A state championship series last spring and showed well. Built similar to the other men in his family and projects arm speed and arm strength moving forward. The delivery is a bit upright at finish, but gathers well and breaks over the rubber. The FB touches 83 with fringy sink life, but the out pitch is a swing and miss CH 70-72 with late run and sink. His father's best pitch was the CH and he definitely learned from him. A K thrower and flashes the similar velo his older brother did as an incoming sophomore, and Isaac left HS, touching 92-93. Look for big jumps in stuff this next spring, as Andrew will get an opportunity to pitch significant innings in 2023.
