RHP Spencer Drummond (Jacobs) made his Prep Baseball event debut at Sunday’s Unsigned Senior event. He’s an athletic mover on the mound, with simple and repeatable actions, showing a compact arm action out of a high ¾ slot and clear acceleration out front. His fastball sat 84-85 mph with mostly straight actions. He also threw a developing curveball with fastball intent, playing with 11/5 shape, and a change-up with slight fade and depth, sitting 76-79 mph.
