Notes

Comments

1/31/24

Positional Profile: RHP/OF
Body: 6-5, 190-pounds. Lean, athletic, highly projectable frame.
Delivery: Stretch only, slightly open front foot, medium/high controlled leg lift, pre-bend in back knee and rides down the mound, strides in line, athletic operation and finish.
Arm Action: RH. Long reach in the back out of the glove, transitions into a high 3/4 release.
FB: T93, 91-92 mph. Life out of the hand, jumps through the zone with carry and backspin (2400-2500 rpm). T2567, 2476 average rpm.
CB: 78-79 mph. Sharp 11/5 action, late bite, tight shape with above-average spin (+2500 rpm), landed for some strikes, missed up occasionally. T2595, 2440 average rpm.
CH: 84-86 mph. Thrown with near fastball arm-speed, slight run to the arm-side, kept mostly to arm-side, miss was low. T1755, 1573 average rpm.

10/06/23

RHP Bryce Koch (Barrington, 2024; Cincinnati commit) looked the part on Saturday afternoon in his outing. Koch is a slender 6-foot-5, 190-pounds that is a fluid mover downhill. Koch works from a stretch-only delivery and throws the ball from a loose, high ¾ slot. Koch’s arsenal was headlined by a high-80’s fastball that played in the 86-89 mph range, touching 90 mph with a spin rate range of 2300-2400+ rpm. Playing off his fastball was a mid-70’s breaker (2200+ rpm) that landed for strikes and induced some swing and miss. Koch had to work around trouble at times, but managed to leave his outing only surrendering one run and punching out five after four innings.

9/23/23

Fresh off a commitment to Cincinnati, 2022 PBR Future Game participant RHP Bryce Koch (Barrington, 2024) gave a loud look during his start for Top Tier. Koch stands at a highly projectable 6-foot-5, 190-pounds and is a fluid mover down the mound. He worked mostly in the 87-89 range while touching 90 mph multiple times. Koch often went to a mid-70s breaking ball that he threw for strikes at times and got awkward swings and misses. Also flashed feel for a downer-type changeup in the low-80s. Although Koch struggled to command at times, he was still able to tally 11 strikeouts in four innings while only allowing one hit.

9/18/23

Verbally committed to Cincinnati.

8/08/23

Positional Profile: RHP/OF
Body: 6-5, 190-pounds.
Delivery: Stretch-only, low effort drop and drive, works on-line to home.
Arm Action: RH. Short arm action into a 3/4 slot, loose.
FB: T89, 86-88 mph. Thrown downhill with backspin and ride through the zone, occasional cut. T2362, 2184 average rpm.
CB: 73-77 mph. Sharp downer movement, 12/6 action. T2258, 2129 average rpm.
SL: 80-81 mph. Plays with two-plane break, gradual. T2367, 2312 average rpm.
CH: 83-84 mph. Thrown with intent and plays with depth, some arm-side movement. T1603, 1566 average rpm.

6/06/23

RHP Bryce Koch (Barrington, 2024) was another member from Team Illinois at the PBR Future Games last summer who remains uncommitted and continues to show one of the higher ceilings in the class. Currently ranked No. 53 in Illinois’ 2024 class, the 6-foot-4, 190-pound, long-limbed, athletic, right-hander works primarily out of the stretch and is an easy mover down the mound with a drop and drive delivery that works slightly across his body. The arm works clean with acceleration out front, from a ¾ slot. Fastball worked in the zone 67% of the time and sat in the mid-80s, T87.3 mph (average 2429 rpm). Slider played out of a similar window as his fastball, flashing sweeping action at 76-77 mph. Koch rounded out his three-pitch mix with a changeup that he kills spin on at 82 mph with some run and sink action.

5/04/23

Uncommitted. Currently ranked No. 72 in the state. 6-foot-4, 190-pound frame, athletic and projectable with room to fill out. Came out of the ‘pen for Barrington and gave a brief, but impressive look in his one inning of work. He worked Exclusively out of the stretch, moving fluidly and athletically while working in-line down the mound with little perceived effort. His arm is quick and plays from a high ¾ window, creating a fastball that sat 89-90 mph with life through the zone. He flashed a sharp, two-plane breaking ball at 77-79 mph, kept down and playing off the fastball effectively. High-follow 2024 arm. 

 
3/02/23

There were a trio of long levered right-handers who showed plenty of upside and present stuff to pitch at the next level. RHP Tom Ford (Lisle, 2024) is a long levered arm who’s body screams upside. His 6-foot-6, 185-pound frame brings an 89-91 mph fastball with presence in the strike zone. He showed an 11/5 curveball as well with similar feel and repeated a low and away location at 74-76 mph. Bryce Koch (Barrington, 2024), at 6-foot-4, 190-pounds, showed a lively fastball at 88-89 mph, topping at 90 mph with a hard sinking changeup. Brady Chambers (Lyons Township, 2024) is a 6-foot-6, 210-pound Michigan State commit who went after the zone with intent and pace. His fastball plays with occasional tilt and backspin from an over the top slot, flashing carry through zone.

2/25/23

Positional Profile: RHP/OF
Body: 6-4, 190-pounds. Lanky build, projectable.
Delivery: Stretch-only delivery, lanky actions, high front side.

FB: T90, 88-89 mph. Lively fastball, with ease. T2550, 2490 average rpm.
CB: 77-77 mph. 11/5 shape, above average action, locates down. T2115, 2087 average rpm.
CH: 82-84 mph. Hard sink, down in the zone. T2028, 1909 average rpm.

6/07/22

Positional ProfileRHP
Body: 6-4, 185-pounds.
Delivery: Athletic, low-effort delivery, moves into a tall/fall lower-half from balance point, remains in-line to the plate, fluid tempo throughout.
Arm Action: RH. Long stab out of a glove with a curled wrist, moves into a 3/4 to high 3/4 slot.
FB: T87.7, 85-87 mph. Jumps out of the hand with life through the zone. T2500, 2193 average rpm.
SL: 73-75 mph. Flashed sharp/late action, 10/4 shape. T2151, 2067 average rpm.
CH: 78-80 mph. Feel for the bottom of the zone, fading action to the arm-side with arm-speed. T1871, 1762 average rpm.

6/07/22

RHP Bryce Koch (Barrington, 2024) was easily one of the biggest winners from Tuesday’s event, catching our staff’s attention the second he walked into the park. The 6-foot-4, 180-pound Koch possesses all sorts of upside to his lean and lanky frame, looking to have plenty of room for added strength in the coming years. It's an easy and low-effort operation down the mound, moving with a tall/fall lower-half that stays in-line to the plate before transitioning into a ¾ to high ¾ slot. His fastball explodes out of the hand with some finish through the zone, sitting 85-87 mph while topping out at 88 mph (T2500 RPM). His changeup was his most consistent off-speed offering throughout his ‘pen, living at the bottom and under the zone while playing with fading action to the arm-side, 78-80 mph. Koch’s slider flashed above-average action at times, playing with sharp/late bite and depth at 74-75 mph, struggling with command down at-times but will easily be able to correct it with a higher starting point for the pitch.
