An upside right-hander to know from the day is RHP Brendan Carlson (Providence Catholic, 2027). He has a projectable frame with plenty of room to fill out in the coming years, standing in at 6-foot-2, 188-pounds with sloped shoulders and a high waist. The right-hander has an easy tall/fall delivery that he can repeat while staying balanced, also showing a loose and clean arm from a high ¾ slot. His fastball cruised right at 79-80 mph, working with straight four-seam action and feel for the bottom of the zone. His curveball played around 67-68 mph, showing 11/5 shape and depth at times - while his changeup played at 71-72 mph with slight fading action.
