Notes

7/31/21

A Future Games participant with good size and present and projectable strength. A two way type that is being recruited as such. It starts with big pull side juice from the 1B position and he has some natural lift and ext to drive the ball to all parts of the field. He will have all fields power when all is said and done. Right now it plays straight away to the pull side and he has a very good sophomore season with the bat. The arm is the intriguing part as he has a little Mark Mulder feel to him. The delivery is a raise the leg and tuck the front shoulder with a late shoulder turn out front. The arm swing is low TQ and with some length and whip. He gets to a full finish out front and does have some spin out at times, but is correctable. The FB was 83-86 at LakePoint, but have seen 88 in the spring. The FB has some late natural sink and the CB sweeps. The CH is the weapon as he can kill spin and shows FB arm speed to create deception. The CH dives and has some turnover effect in the bottom part of the zone. One of the better two way guys out there.

A 6-3 200 with a MLB LHP build. A youth phenom and had some issues with his left shoulder, that didn't require surgery, yet didn't throw in a live game for over a year. Has made 4 appearances since President's Day weekend. Just rounding back into form, but does flash some very intriguing potential with A FB 82-87 and sits right now at 84-85 and I fully expect by the end of summer to see him touch 88-89. Big upside and just needs time and experience as he gets further from his health issues. Has a chance to be a stud!
