Unsigned Senior Spotlight: RHP Trey Tigart (Sikeston)

One of the most polished pitchers of the Premier Upperclass Showcase, the lanky 6-foot, 164-pound Tigart showed to be an effective and efficient pitcher who showed the ability to command three pitchers. While not overpowering, Tigart seems like the kind of pitcher that keeps batters off balance and gets outs. Coming from a high ¾ arm slot, Tigart’s fastball sat in the 82-84 mph range with heavy, late life.  He showed good feel for his off-speed pitches as well, with a curveball that had an 10-to-4 shape with late action in the 73-75 mph range, and a changeup in the 72-74 mph with arm side movement and down in the zone. As he gain a few more pounds, look for an increase in velocity from Tigart.

Tigart shows the ability to know what pitch to throw in each situation he encountered during his live batting practice session, keeping batters off balance by consistently hitting his spots and effectively changing speeds.
