Calcagno showed well on Sunday on the mound, throwing four innings and allowing one run (unearned) on three hits with six strikeouts. Strong build at 6-foot-4, 210-pounds. Explosive delivery. Straight fastball at 81-85 mph with a curveball thrown for strikes at 68-70 mph.
RHP Jack Calcagno (IC Catholic Prep, 2024) is a long-limbed 6-foot-4, 215-pound right-hander that came away with one of the more impressive ‘pens of the day. With a powerful drop/drive delivery, Calcagno uses every ounce of his large frame to help move downhill while his front-side remains strong at release, working from a short and clean high ¾ slot. He ran his fastball up to 82 mph, sitting primarily 80-81 mph with arm-side ride to the plate. His changeup looked to be his preferred offering from this ‘pen, possessing feel for the strike zone with fading action at 72-74 mph, kept mostly down. Calcagno also went to a sharp breaking ball that plays off an 11/5 plane with depth, thrown for strikes at times at 66-69 mph.
