Scouting Report
6-18-19 Uncommitted. 6'3" 170 with a well proportioned, athletic frame. Continues to progrees nicely on the mound. Clean arm action with average arm speed that projects to improve as he continues his physical maturation. Above avgerage athlete. Generates steep downhill plane from the forced high slot that should allow all three of his pitches to tunnel well in the future. FB was 83-85, which is an improvement from what we have seen in the past. True downer CB 71-74 and a solid CH 71-72. The quick hip into open toe landing and lack of stiffness in the lead leg through his finish could cause command issues in the future, but for now his athleticism can overcome it. With continued devlopment and some delivery clean up, he could be a highest level prospect.
1/27/19- 6’2 160-pound broad shoulder, projectable frame. The L/L comes from a high ¾ angle with pitchability and feel for all his pitches, including a fastball that got up to 83 MPH. His long arms help create a good downhill plane, hiding the ball well from hitters, working behind his body for most of his delivery. Breaking ball has the future makings of an above average pitch, showing good shape and velo behind it at 72-76 MPH. At the plate he starts with high hands, tilting barrel up as his hands work back to load. Good use of lower half to make adjustments with timing, without having to stop his swing.
