Gawronski

A lanky 6-foot-2, 160-pound right-handed pitcher with projection. Gawronski works with a loose, quick arm from an over-the-top slot that creates some downhill tilt and run on the fastball, sitting 80-82 mph early in his outing against GRB MKE Green on Thursday. He was also utilizing a curveball in the 68-69 mph range that featured 12/6 shape with some sharpness, just didn’t have full feel to locate at the bottom or under the zone on this day.
