LHP Brolan Frost (Elkhorn Area, 2025) has big upside in his 6-foot-3, 162-pound frame featuring long, loose limbs, a young overall look and all kinds of continued physical development to come down the road. His arm action is just as projectable playing easy, loose and free out of a ¾ slot with whip and quickness out front. The fastball showed control of the zone, jumped out of the hand and sat comfortably around 83 mph (2245 average rpm), playing with 16.1 inches of average induced vertical break and 10.7 average inches of horizontal movement. There seems to be plenty more velocity to come in the near future. Frost paired his upside fastball with a mid-70’s curveball thrown with arm speed, short wrinkle and landed in the zone 80% of the time, well above-average for his age. He rounded out his three-pitch mix with an upper-70s changeup.
10/15/22
Frost is listed at a projectable 6-foot-2, 160 pounds with a high-waisted frame. On the mound, Frost showed an athletic drop-and-drive delivery that finishes slightly closed off, while also possessing a loose arm that projects to add more velo as he adds strength and continues to mature. Frost uses three pitches: a fastball, 77-80 mph, with carry and finish through spots; a curveball, 72-73 mph, that is a slurve-type offering that plays well at the bottom of the zone; and a changeup, 74-77 mph, that has a similar shape to his fastball, leaving a near-identical slot with deceptive arm speed.
