LHP Dayne Meyer (Willowbrook, 2024) emerged a winner from Sunday’s event. A well-proportioned 6-foot-3, 185-pound southpaw with plenty of room for added mass, Meyer put together a polished ‘pen, showcasing a clean three-pitch mix. He worked with poise and fluidity downhill, controlling his lower half to front foot strike in a controlled manner. His fastball played at 80-81 mph from a loose, low-effort arm stroke and there’s certainly more untapped velocity in the tank. Meyer confidently threw his changeup at arm speed in the 74-76 mph range and it consistently played with late arm-side action. He threw a slider with lateral action off a 2/8 plane at 73-75 mph as well, landing it for strikes and making for an effective pairing with his fastball should he work the arm-side corner of the plate. Meyer’s present polish and future outlook on the mound are both standout attributes for his age.
