3.23.17: Very tall and athletic frame, big wingspan. Good feet, especially for his height, plays through ball well, above average hands. Throws from a sidearm slot, short loose arm action and a quick arm. Hits from the right side, line drive swing with some gap power ability, primarily showed a pull approach.

11/9/2014: Sims stands 6-foot-3 and has an athletic frame that he can add weight to. He is a sidearmer with a long, loose arm action that is quick. He is smooth throughout his delivery and lands closed, releasing the ball from behind right handed hitters. Sims’ fastball sat 80-82, touching 83 and had heavy run on it. He did a good job commanding it to both sides of the plate, particularly inside to righthanded hitters. Sims also threw a slider with late, sharp break and full arm speed that came in at 67 and a sinking change-up with fastball arm action that came in at 74.  Offensively, hit from a balance stance with feet slightly wider than shoulder width apart. Started with high hands, had a quiet rhythm, and had a smooth load back. Took a direct path to the ball, had a good lower half that collapsed on occasion but maintained a line drive stroke. Created backspin with good leverage is going to have the ability to show above-average power.  In the field, showed good actions for size. Had soft hands and average feet, needs to grow into his body. Shows the ability to take good angles, had more range to the glove side.
