2.24.18
 
Draper has a lanky and athletic build at 6-foot-4, 185-pounds. Begins on the first base side of the mound with his feet staggered. Hands start high and move with rhythm and tempo. Front leg kicks out before a high leg kick. Engages lower half early and efficiently. In an athletic position at foot strike. Stays in line with the plate. Uses torque to generate force from his upper body. From the stretch, begins slightly closed with back leg preset. Maintains same leg kick in the stretch. Long, loose arm action with a low 3/4 slot. Fastball topped at 81 MPH and sat 79-81 MPH. Slider showed big 11/5 shape at 68-69 MPH. SL was located to both sides of the plate and occasionally showed late, sharp tilt at the bottom of the zone. Changeup showed both significant run and fade at 70-72 MPH. 
 
 
Last Chance Open I.D. Showcase (November 5th, 2016)
Draper has a tall, lanky build at 6-foot-4, 185-pounds. Fastball topped at 74 mph, showcased a curveball at 63-64 with small 10/4 depth and a straight change at 67-68. Delivery is started with a big first step, which causes him to get slightly off balance at balance point. Small, short arm action. Stiff arm stroke. Throws from a true 3/4 slot. Can increase velocity if he can get more explosiveness in his legs going down the mound. Needs to get more extension to homeplate at release point.
