Listed at long-levered 6-foot, 175 pounds, Ripley has a low-80s fastball (T82.5 mph) that spins at an above-average rate and he generates prominent horizontal action on the pitch and located it effectively on the edges of the zone. His spin feel translates to his secondaries, a curveball and cutter, which both flashed the ability to miss bats at the next level. The curve, 70-71 mph, has two-plane sweep and his cutter, which is maybe more slider-like, has short break that he throws more aggressively in the mid-70s and it is spun more tightly, reaching over 2,400 rpm at times.
