RHP Connor Jendraszak (Lincoln-Way East) is another arm to follow closely moving forward. Jendraszak, who also showed well at the Illinois State Games in August, is listed at 6-foot-2, 185 pounds, and he ran his fastball up to 86 mph with a four-pitch repertoire. Both of his breaking balls play in the low- to mid-70s with the curveball showing depth and sweeping horizontal action at times. The changeup plays at 75-76 mph with arm-side fade and some feel for the zone.
