Georgia commit. 6-foot-1, 195-pound right-handed pitcher, strong, sturdy frame, room for added muscle and firming up in some areas. Arm works clean on the back-side, hiding well on the back-side to an over-the-top slot, quick arm speed. Drop and drive delivery, really rides lower half down the mound, works on-line, lands and finishes square. Fastball, 87-89, gets downhill with. Curveball, 11/5 shape, worked primarily to the glove-slide, got swing and misses with, 74-77.
This medium-framed righty committed to Georgia has been on fire out of the gate. He commands the ball to both side of the plate out of his high overhand slot. His fastball sits in the 86-90 range and gets good angle down in the zone. His curveball is a true 12-6 pitch because of his arm slot and DeJong shows the ability to land it for quality strikes, and finish off hitters by burying in front of the zone for swings and misses. This kid has competed well in both outings at LakePoint and is going to make Dawgs fans happy, as he has all the makings of a weekend starter early in his career.
