unsigned sr. Report

On the mound the uncommitted Sr. brings size (6-foot-2, 210-pounds) and a competitive edge with a desire to get better. On the mound he uses a quick tempo to his delivery, slight dip on his back side with a back and shorter arm-action. Releases ball from a high 3/4 slot, fastball as been up to 81 mph, shows comfort and feel of his changeup with fastball arm-speed and fade. Can pitch at the next level. Offensively - uses counter rotation between upper and lower torso for an exit velocity of 86 MPH; repeatable motion, keeps bat plane stays on a level path through contact zone, heavy load, power to pull side. Defensively - basic footwork, sure hands, smooth transfer with an infield velocity of 65 MPH.
