Stephen
Graebe

8/26/17

6-foot, 155-pound left-hander works from a mid 3/4 arm slot. Fastball touches 77 mph with substantial arm side run and sink. Curveball thrown at 62-63 had 1/7 shape with rolling action.  Graebe had difficulty commanding changeup on this day. Mechanically, delivery is repeated well. Good balance and rhythm is present. Height is substantially lowered during stride and there is intermittent tendency to open front hip early and land open. Associated subtle arm drag exists.  Graebe would benefit from staying taller in delivery and eliminating early, excessive front side opening.
