Grzesiak is a Virginia Tech commit and is 6-5 with a lanky projectable frame, he has broad shoulders and long limbs and a lot of room to add strength to his frame. Long loose, quick arm action with easier effort to his delivery. Shoulders are uphill and slightly closed, lands open with a slight fall off finish. Fastball was 88-91, sat 90-91 in his first two innings, was 88-90 touching 91 in the third, and was mostly sitting 88 in the fourth. Pitch has downward angle and a bit of late armside run. Slide steps with a runner on, gives up a tick of velocity when in the slide step, 87-88 in the slide step in the third versus 88-90 when in the windup. Curveball was 74-78 with good armspeed and sharp hard 11/5 break, pitch is swing and miss. Can throw for strikes or as a finisher. Was 77-78 early in the outing and was more 74-76 towards the end. Change-up was 84 with good armspeed, spiked both that he threw in the game. Was dominant in the game, in the first two innings completely overpowered Osbourn Park, struck out first 6 hitters with almost no contact occurring. It was the 10th batter of the game before a ball was put into fair territory. 11 strikeouts out of 15 outs, with one out coming on a caught stealing. Showed control with fastball more so than command. Still has a lot of room to add strength and continue to fill out. Is an athlete, moves well running the bases and also plays basketball where he moves well on the wing and in the post.

Grzesiak is 6-5 with a very lanky athletic frame that has a ton of projection left to it. He throws from a high three-quarters arm slot, longer loose lightning quick arm action and easy effort to his delivery. Shoulders are uphill and closed, lands slightly closed with a slight fall off finish. Fastball was 86-89, touching 90, with a lot of downward angle and some late hard armside run. Curveball had good armspeed and was 73-75 with sharp 11/5 break to it, good shape to it already, pitch flashes swing and miss. Change-up was 79-82 with good armspeed and some hard late fade to it.
Positional Profile: RHP
Body: 6-foot-4, 165-pounds. Lanky and projectable with good athleticism. More there to add to this frame. Very interesting prospect in the 2022 class.
Delivery: controlled delivery with smooth build up. Front rocker step, quiet head. Shows some lower half usage, more there to add also. Not much effort with natural arm speed.
Arm Action: RH. Sound arm action with no wasted movements in the arm circle.
FB: T85, 83-85 mph. Slight sink to the pitch.
CB: 72-74 mph. Tight and short 11/5 shape on the pitch. Potential to be a good pitch.
