A projectable 6-foot-4 200-pound RHP, Richter finished his pen in impressive fashion with his best fastball of the day at 85 mph. A huge jump from where we saw him last summer when he was sitting in the upper 70’s. Richter looks to only be scratching the surface of his potential, while his large frame can be corralled at times, it moves quick and athletically down the mound and creates potential for some serious arm speed. He creates natural arm side action on both his fastball and changeup, both above average pitches for his age, while his slider is still developing. He flashed some intrigue as a position player as well, consistently generating quick swings in the box while favoring the pull-side w in ith backspin flights. On the infield he hangs back, works from right to left while using a low eye level for a big frame. He threw with clean spin and carry across the diamond and handled himself well at first base during his workout. Don’t be surprised to see Richter make another jump once he hangs up the basketball sneakers for the year.
