Athletic frame standing around 5-foot-11. Whitaker possesses solid arm speed and a swing and miss slider. Needs to become more efficient on the mound, as he tends to get deep in the count at times, but has the ability to be a shutdown arm for the Warriors. Starts closed and pitches primarily out of the stretch. Average balance point before sinking in the back leg and driving down the mound with shoulders level. Lands slightly closed at foot strike and finishes towards the plate. Small arm circle and throws from a high three-quarter arm slot. Fastball sat at 83-85 and topped at 86 mph, which is a tick down from the last time we saw him. Slider has fastball arm speed and intent at 75-77 mph. Needs to get ahead in order to use the slider and finish counts off sooner to keep the pitch count down, but is a nice prospect to follow this spring.
