Ted Williams
Director of Scouting, PA

This feature checks in with weekly top performers throughout the preseason, comparing the improvements made since our last look at them. Out of a crowded field of 70 players at Go Wags scout day on February 27th, a Junior right-hander showed measured success with the ceiling and frame for much more in the coming years.

PROGRESS Report

Last Look Notes: February 28, 2021, Go Wags Scout Day, The lanky, projectable 6-foot, 145lb right-handed pitcher toed the rubber with a feel for three pitches from a moderate effort in the delivery. Pounded the zone with strike-throwing ability and featured natural arm-side run with leverage out over the pitch on a 76-78, T79 mph fastball (77 mph AVG). The slider flashed average with short, lateral shape (2 inches HM) across the plate and there was more to be had, though a tunneled 70-72 mph changeup killed spin (1703rpms) and commanded consistent, hard fade with a chance to be an out pitch down the road. 

Recent Improvements: February 27, 2022, Go Wags Scout Day, Livingston arrived with an inch of added height and some strength gains evident in a higher velocity floor (83 mph AVG FB) while working into the mid-80's peak (T84 mph). The arm worked elastically with timed up mechanics and heavy action to the fastball with some sinker/slider play out of a lower 3/4 slot. The offspeed was much improved as a whole, looking at an above-average 72-73 mph slider that now holds an AVG of 16 inches of HM at 2150rpms (T2210). More impressively, he landed it for strikes at a 75% clip via Trackman Baseball, displaying that it's ready to be a weapon in the arsenal now. Improved intent on the changeup at 77-79 mph (old fastball velocity) has made it extremely hard to pick up out of the hand and creates good extension down the mound on the finish. The ceiling keeps pushing higher with natural feel in-game to attack the zone and get outs.
