In my opinion the TOP arm that’s flying under the radar and he pitches for one of the iconic coaches in the Beehive State in Pleasant Grove and Future Games coach, Darrin Henry. Haynie has a classic north to south direct online delivery with a clean fluid arm stroke and the ball jumps out of the hand with consistent 87-90 mph velocity. The SL/SLV tunnels well off his FB and breaks sharp at the last minute with a fading pull the string 3rd offering with his CH up. A strike thrower that works off the edges of the plate and finds the pitching part of the K zone with ease. The FB is a low darted offering that stays below the impact zone for potential ground ball type life and effect. Take a look at the video and see the base delivery took from, for a quality pitching coach. Has aptitude and is quiet in nature and soaks in information with a low presence. Although not as physical as some other prospects, there is a quality JC/D2 out there, that would be taking a jump at an arm and delivery that could see big jumps as he needs to get more acquainted with the gym and the rest will take care of itself. Sleeper type that could surprise and surpass arms with bigger stuff and tools!
