Good smooth mechanics on the mound with a high-3/4 arm slot. Commands the strike zone with all three pitches FB/CB/CU. Early in in the season, was 84-86 touched 87 a few times. Curveball has a 12 to 5 break with same arm action ranging 68 to 71 mph. Change up ranges from 71 to 74 mph. Gets stronger as game goes on. Finished game with 12 strikeouts in 5.1 innings. He had 8 strikeouts in a row.

Athletically built at 6-foot, 160 pounds.  Works from an over-the-top slot with a quick arm. Simple delivery with slight body turn at balance, a long arm swing, and blocking himself off slightly at foot strike, Bolin’s fastball touched 85.  A ‘tall and fall’ rhythm out of balance, with good head posture can lead to deception.  Both offspeed pitches show promise, as the curveball ranged 71-73, flashing late 11/5 action.  The change-up showed some arm side run at 76-79.  Both pitches were in the zone.  The frame suggests more growth to come.  The delivery should continue to allow for strikes and increased pitch-ability.  In the box, the Right handed hitter starts from a tall setup and short stride, while lacking a hand load with a vertical bat.  Better than average bat speed.  Level bat path geared to pull.  Direct path with average barrel awareness.  From the outfield, arm strength measured at 86mph with a long loose arm arc to an over-the-top slot that has some whip to the release point.  Good carry and accuracy.  Ran a 7.20 sixty.
