Lean and athletic 6-foot-2, 169-pound frame, holds plenty of room to add strength. The right-hander delivers his arsenal from a deceptive low release height, working with a controlled leg-lift into a higher balance point before transitioning into a drop/drive lower-half that stays in-line. The fastball played at 88-89 mph with 2,398 rpm on average, showing ride/run traits through the zone. He has a knack to spin the slider, averaging over 2,400 rpm with heavy sweeping action (T-22.1” HM), 71-73 mph). He also showed a sinker with much lower IVB than the four-seam and slightly more arm-side run, killing spin a bit at 87-89 mph.
RHP Owen Borkowski (Huntley, 2027) is an uncommitted right-handed arm who continues to make big strides on the mound and put together arguably the loudest showing during the bullpen sessions. Borkowski is an athletic, loose mover who is listed at 6-foot-1, 168-pounds with plenty more physical projection to come down the road. The fastball was jumping out of the hand playing up to 90.5 mph, sitting 88-90 with an average of 17.2 inches of horizontal movement, T19.6 inches. Its a dynamic pitch that peaks at 2,533 rpm with all kinds of life and run through the zone. He pairs it with a hard biting, horizontal slider that showed wipeout, swing-and-miss properties, averaging 2,377 rpm and an average of 18.9 mph. The slider matches his low ¾ slot and gives him two well-above average offerings that should generate plenty of swing and miss moving forward. Borkowski oozes upside as he seems to just be scratching the surface of what he could become as a pitcher as he continues to polish up and refine his arsenal. Dynamic showing from the 2027 uncommitted arm.
