Ross

+ FR RHP Jake Ross (Wisconsin Lutheran, WI) had a strong showing in his ‘pen, showing a feel for four pitches throughout his showing. He has an up-tempo delivery that works quickly into a coiled balance point, dropping into his back leg while holding some bend as he works in-line down the mound. His arm plays quick out front with a loose, whippy release, ¾ slot. Ross cruised with his fastball in the 85-88 mph range, playing with life out of the hand and finish through the zone. He was able to land his curveball for strikes consistently, playing with sharp 11/5 shape and over 2,400 rpm at 68-72 mph. He showed some feel for his slider as well, playing with more lateral shape in the 69-71 mph range, also landing it for strikes. His final offering was a changeup that played at 74-79 mph, running naturally to his arm-side (T15.4”) with some feel to that side as well.
