Scouting Report
7/25/2017
Up to 95 mph, sitting 92-93 mph at the Area Code scrimmage in New Hampshire. Continues to improve as each month passes.
Spring Season of 2017
Saw Ryan pitch against St Johns Prep, pitched 6 innings and struck out 14 hitters. Flashed 91/92 with the makings of improving secondary stuff. Ceiling and potential are through the roof.
SPRING SEASON OF 2016
We had a chance to see Ryan pitch during his spring campaign, and he is developing nicely. Bumped his velocity to the upper 80's, touching 90/91 numerous times. Showed the makings of a plus slider as well. The changeup is a work in progress. The frame projects and if he stays on this path, he will be a good draft out of high school.
3/9/16
Long and lanky right-hander who shows a huge amount of promise. The arm is quick and he pitches from a slightly lower than 3/4 arm slot. The fastball has serious life to it, touched 86. The slider is short and sat at 71. The changeup needs better rotation to it, but the arm speed remains the same, sat at 76. The delivery has crossfire to it. This leads to him having trouble get all the way out front with his ball hand. A slight tweak of his foot alignment will allow his stuff to come out. The front side is stable and the body posture is very good. Arm is good enough to pitch anywhere in the country.
