2025 RHP/2B Matthew Lu, 5-foot-11, 135-pounds - Skinny right-handed pitcher from the Toronto Mets with short arm action from a 3/4 arm-slot. The fastball sat 71-72mph through the entirety of his bullpen and he also flashed a curveball at 58-60 and changeup at 62-63. Breaking ball has top-to-bottom action and while the changeup is still a work in progress, there were a few with late diving action.
