Henry

10/14/12 - Henry is a long, lanky left-handed pitcher with a high ceiling. At 6-foot-4, 175-pounds, Henry’s long arm action from a lower ¾ arm slot gives a unique look to hitters. Henry showed the ability to control the zone with his fastball, showing run and sink on his 82-84 mph fastball. Henry showed feel and arm action for his off-speed pitches, resulting in ideal splits off of his fastball (curveball at 67-69 mph, change up at 75 mph). His curveball showed 10/4 sweeping action and his changeup was thrown with excellent arm speed, showing arm side run. Henry is a commodity as a tall left hander with feel and upside.

With a projectable 6-foot-4, 175-pound frame, Henry showed feel for all three of his pitches.  He operates from a mid ¾ arm slot with a long loose arm and a long stride off the mound.  Henry’s heavy fastball topped at 84 mph with some arm-side run and sink. He also showed two off-speed pitches, a gradual curveball with 1-to-7 shape that sat in the 70-71 mph range and a sinking changeup in the 75-77 mph range. With his frame, look for a spike in velocity in Henry’s pitches are his body continues to fill out.
