Bay Area World Series 2020 (BAWS) - Uncommitted; Very intriguing outing, FB up to 86, sitting mid-80s w/abv avg movement. Flashed high spin rate on the heater (2512 max), while also putting good spin on the CB. CHG is also quite good. The frame is projectable, as is the raw stuff.

At San Benito: Showed good athleticism on the hill and stuff that can still tick up. Frame was soft and long, showing the projection to be stronger as he keeps growing. Hands stayed at waist with longer depth and full swing out of the glove through H-¾ release. FB 78-81 T82 with heaviness through the zone. CHG 71-72 with arm side bottom; sells the pitch well and can fade it when needed. CB 64-68 showing small depth with late slow bend in 11/6-to-12/6 shape. Two strong innings with a K in the outing.
