Body: 6-4, 185-pounds. Broad shoulders, long levers. High waist.
Delivery: Slow to medium paced windup with patience over the rubber. Optimal stride length, slight drift in up+down+out phases creates some crossfire deception. Firm on legs at landing.
Arm Action: LH. Deceptive, deep stab from H3/4 slot. 2 piece arm action but plenty arm speed.
FB: T85.2, 83-85 mph. Live tail with some late sink. T2260, 2083 average rpm.
SL: 71-72 mph. Some sweep. T1895, 1872 average rpm.
CH: 72-74 mph. Fade & depth. T1802, 1774 average rpm.
6-foot-2, 145-pound left-handed pitcher, long, lanky frame, athletic build with lean muscle. Started the championship game for Georgia Jackets against the East Cobb Astros. Worked from a ¾ to low ¾ slot with a drop and drive delivery. One of the few pitchers on the weekend to offer a true three pitch mix. Fastball sat 76-79, touched 80. Curveball, sweeping action at 64-67. Changeup, flashed sink and fade, 64-66.
