1/17/15 Florida Preseason ID Showcase - Thick strong athletic frame. H¾ arm slot with a no wind up delivery. Arm is loose and works fairly easy. Fluid delivery with good rhythm that he repeated. Stays over the rubber and gets good extension out front. Fastball velocity was 83-86 mph. Curveball was 71-72 mph and is a ¾ breaker that flashed good rotation with depth when he gets on top, and could be his best pitch with more consistency. Usable changeup with good arm speed. It will improve with reps. Very good feel for pitching. Threw a lot of strikes. Shane showed arm strength along with the ability to spin breaking ball. One of the better pitchers at the workout.
