He has added muscle and is a lean 6-foot-1, 165 pounds now. He has an up-tempo delivery with good direction and sits 86-89, touching 90-91. His slider has lateral movement and ranges from 69-75 mph. Dalesandro has also flashed multiple arm angles and features an 85-86 mph fastball from a side-arm slot that features run.
