Notes

Comments

2/10/24
RHP Jake Thorstenson (Wauconda, 2026) will be an arm to follow moving forward. He has an easy and controlled delivery with an over-the-top release, creating a fastball in the 81-84 mph range, topping out at 85 mph with slight running action to his arm-side. To pair off the fastball he went to a sharp 10/4 slider at 73-77 mph, thrown confidently for strikes. To complete his repertoire he showed a changeup in the upper-70s with downward action, thrown with intent.
