His shoulders are uphill and he strides out on line before landing a bit open and falling off as he finishes. Alderman pounded the strike zone with a straight fastball that sat 84-85. His slider had power 10/4 breaking action to it that ran 68-71 and has the potential to be a good pitch as his feel improves.
