LHP Sean McNair (Deerfield, 2026) gave a polished look throughout his ‘pen, showing feel for all three of his pitches. The southpaw worked exclusively out of the stretch, controlling his leg lift into a tall/fall operation downhill, working well down the mound. His arm is clean with a full circle in the back, working quickly into an easy ¾ release. He impressed with a big fastball, topping out at 86 mph while cruising around 85 mph throughout the duration of his showing. To pair off the fastball he went to a 2/8 sweeping slider at 69-71 mph and straight splitter at 73-75 mph.
