Uncommitted. Hopkins provided an intriguing first glance to open up bracket play on Sunday. The freshman attacked with a three-pitch mix of fastball, change-up, and curveball. The RHP heavily relied on the fastball and attacked all quadrants of the plate, the fastball sat 78-80 and topped 81 with arm-side run. Mixed in the change-up at 71 and the curveball was flipped over at 66-67, with the ability to add/subtract horizontal movement. An easy mover on the mound with fluid repeatable mechanics. Quick, loose arm stroke. A lean, high-waisted 6-foot-1 frame that will continue to add velocity with added strength/size.
