Pierce is 6-0 with a lanky frame that has a lot of projection left to it. He hits from the right side from a balanced athletic stance, strides on line, short load down and back to a wrap. Hips rotate with some violence and he maintains some lower half balance. Hands stay inside, goes straight to the ball, slightly uphill line drive swing path with some strength at contact and extension through the ball, showed a good approach working gap to gap, has some power potential in the alleys, exit velocity was 79. In the outfield, gets body behind the ball and fields with average hands, works through exchange, throws from a three-quarters arm slot, short free arm action, position velocity was 74. Ran a 4.38 home to first. On the mound, he throws from a high three-quarters arm slot, short free arm action with normal effort to his delivery. Shoulders are uphill and on line, lands on line with an athletic finish. Fastball was 68-72, with some downward plane and a bit of armside run. Curveball was 58-62 with some armspeed and late gradual 10/4 break to it with some shape present. Change-up was 66-69 with good armspeed and some late run.
