6/12/18: 2019 RHP showed well during his outing. Pitches from high ¾ arm slot, arm is quick and loose. Does tend to throw across body at times, this creates good angle to the outter half to rightys. Command of FB was good. FB sat 85-87 T88 with some late action. SL showed good potential with late sharp action at 74-76. Feel for 2ndary continues to improve.
 
4/13/18 Spring Scout Blog: Uncommitted 6-foot-1 190 pound righty ranked No. 41 in the Indiana 2019 class. Looks and pitches more athletic than last season. Fastball was a notch less than February when he ran it up to 89. Sat 84-87 in the first and 81-83 through the fifth on the weekend. Pitch was difficult to hit when it ran in on the hands to RHH but control was an issue at times. Curveball was 71-74 with gradual break. Change up could be an out pitch when thrown with sink. Slows arm some. Ball comes out of a high 3/4 slot with average to above average arm speed and some rhythm. Shoulders stay level. Good direction and finish. 
2/18/18:  6-foot-1, 185 pound right-hander showed added strength and physicality on the mound.  Fastball ran up to 89, sat 86-88 for strikes.  Long, slight hitch in the arm swing as he gets into a 3/4 slot.  Good tempo throughout.  Lower half is slightly closed off, finishing around the front leg.  Breaking ball has early, loopy break at 70-72.  Change-up featured some sink and arm side run at times.
Graf has an open setup in the batters box.  Short stride gets him back in line as hands load back.  Rotational swing.  Long, level path.  Has hand strength.  Potential pull side power.  Partial use of lower half.  Fluid footwork defensively at third base.  Plays through the ball.  Clean transfer into short arm swing.  Throws topped 85 across the infield.
 
9/23/17 - 60 Time: 7.19, Exit Velocity: 91
 6/13/17:  6-foot-1, 180 pound pitcher sat 83-84, touching 85 with the fastball.  Has some arm side run, commanded well.  High 3/4 slot, works quick.  Breaking ball has some late tilt, 10/4 shape.  Offensively, Graf has some bat speed as he registered a high exit velocity of 88mph.  Hands load back, heavy front foot.  Stiff lower half, partial use.  Rotational upper half.  Some lift at contact.  Ran a 7.29.

9/18/16: A 6-foot-1, 180 pound righty works at a quick pace with from a tilt/topple type delivery.  Has some rhythm with level shouldres and direction.  Pitches from a short, loose high 3/4 arm action.  Fastball showed late run at 80-81, topping out at 84.  Breaking ball had late action from a 10/4 shape at 64-68.  Changeup was straight at 69-71.
