12/28/13: 5-foot-9, 185 pound freshman has a slow delivery and inconsistent with his direction. His fastball was a heavy 73-74 mph with run. Breaking ball showed an 11/5 shape with sharp action, but erratic in the zone. He does keep the breaking ball down with near fastball arm speed. Changeup was 60-62 mph with some arm side run, but erratic in the zone. Tends to slow his arm speed down when throwing the changeup. Defensively was 74 across the diamond with raw actions. At the plate starts from a tall setup and loads back. Uses a small toe tap. Use of lower half needs refined as he tends to collapse on the backside. Pull side hitter and finishes swing one handed.
