More Reports
VanScoter stands 5-foot-11, 160-pounds with a lean, athletic frame. From the mound there's plenty to like from the young LHP. He uses a sidestep into his delivery, hands start high. His rhythm is quick, belt high knee lift, separates at his peak. Hips stay closed as he drives hard towards home, arm action is back, clean and loose. Fastball sat 79-81 mph with arm run, signs of more in the tank. He throws from an over-the-top slot, curveball sat 61-63 signs of spin. He finishes over his front side, spins off after finish. Very good young LHP to keep an eye on.
