At 6-foot-6, 250-pounds with a mid-90s fastball, Dill showed the most intriguing pro potential of the Trojan arms to throw this weekend, but he needs to harness the stuff to reach that potential. The Clemson transfer’s appearance came in a tight game with a runner in scoring position and Devin Taylor – Indiana’s best hitter – at the dish. He proceeded strikeout Taylor swinging at three straight changeups. He got up to 96 mph with his fastball but pitched more constantly in the 92-93 range. After seeing him struggling to throw strikes the following inning and run through six distinct pitches in warmups, he may be better suited to work on refining his top three or four best offerings.

Max FB: 91 FB: 88-91 SL: 78-82 CH: 80-81
The 6-foot-5, 212-pound towering righty displayed electric stuff in his start vs Kentucky in Game 3. Dill was dominant, overpowering hitters w/ a hard three pitch mix striking out 2 in 2 innings of work. Fastball worked 88-91 (Max Spin: 2217 AVG: 2077) w/ late life and great spin. Dill showcased an elite slider at 78-82 (Max Spin: 2347 AVG: 2172) w/ good depth and bite, occasional hard cut. Also flashed changeup at 80-81 w/ good depth as an above average 3rd option. His outing earned him Saturday top performance for Team TN. Profile projects as an advanced RHP w/ great velocity and secondary offerings. A must-see prospect for 2021.
2019 INDIANA STATE GAMES: Projectable 6-foot-4, 212 pound right-hander pitches from a high 3/4 slot with good angle on fastball. Fastball was up to 91, sitting 87-89 in the first; settled in at 84-86, bumping 88-89 on occasion. Compliments the fastball with a 76-79 mph slider. Slider has the makings of a potential out pitch. Uncommitted. 6IP, 9H, 7R, 4ER, 3BB, 10K.
10/14/18 - Max FB: 84, FB: 82-84, CB: 71-74, CH: 73 6-foot-4, 212-pound, RHP struck out 2 in his 2 hit-less innings of work, generating 4 swing and misses on 9 swings. Prototypical pitcher frame, XL tall, long and lanky w/ some present lower half strength, super projectable. Has just scratched the surface of his frame potential. Pitches from a full wind-up into H ¾ release from the first base side of the rubber. Deceptive w/ angle. Quick arm w/ loose arm action. Flashes downhill plane. FB shows consistent arm-side run. Tight, short downer CB w/ late bite, flashes put-away pitch potential. CH w/ arm-speed, fade and sink. Around the zone w/ his 3-pitch mix, projects to command.
