7/21/23

6-foot-5, 245-pound frame. Ruttkay had a dazzling start Friday morning, picking up six strikeouts in 6.2 innings while allowing only one run. Ruttkay operates through a ¾ slot with short, clean arm action that has effort in the delivery. Ruttkay utilizes his big body as well as a medium leg lift and a tall/fall approach. Ruttkay’s fastball sat in the low 80s, topping out at 84 with some arm-side-run. MIxed in a low 70s breaking ball that had sharp actions and high 70s changeup that he kept down.
