6-foot-2, 200-pound, strong, durable pitches frame. Showing strength throughout, well proportioned athlete. A right-handed pitcher, a two-pitch pitcher, pounds the zone. Mechanically is very sound, starts quarter turned, easy leg lift, strong on the backside, longer stride and lands inline. The arm action is longer and clean on the backside, working from a higher 3/4 slot. Pitching to both sides of the plate, 4-seamer gets through the catcher. The fastball touched 80 mph, with more in there. the breaking ball is bigger in shape, showing proper spin and tilt to it, clocked at 59-60 mph. Solid pitch-ability, worked two clean innings. Creating soft contact. Look for a jump at some point. 

6-foot-2, 186-pound, strong, wider, already filling out athletic frame. A well proportioned athlete. A right-handed pitcher, pounds the zone with a four pitch mix. The delivery is simple, repeats and is on time to the plate. The hands start higher, work down with side step and back up with the higher coiled leg raise. The arm action is longer and clean, working out of a high ¾ slot, pitching downhill to the plate, creating 2-seam sink. Threw two different breaking balls,  curveball with a bigger top to bottom break, clocked at 60-63 mph, along with a slider at 63-65 mph. Both show correct spin and shape, need to be thrown with more fastball hand speed on both pitches. Showed feel for throwing change for strikes with turn me over rotation, clocked at 62-63 mph. Pitchability looks to be advanced for his age, will need to continue to strength train, along with building arm strength. Look for him to climb at some point.
