On the mound, Best was 82-84 mph with fastball from a three quarters release point, fastball showed late sink and high number of strikes, repeatable delivery with slight tuck at balance point, in line down the mound, throws with regular effort, curveball 11-to-5 action, gradual break, 68-72 mph, controls his change up at 74-76 mph, near fastball arm speed, some with arm side release.
