Notes

Comments

3/18/25
x: Loose, athletic, 6-foot, 170 pounder that is young for the class. Athletic, up-tempo delivery with longer, loose arm on the backside. Fastball worked at 82-83 with arm-side run & paired well with a 76-78 change that came out with a similiar look. His 72-74 breaking ball is an average pitch for now, though he showed feel to get it in the zone to his glove-side to tunnel with his other two pitches. There is upside in the frame & athleticism with abv avg feel present for all three pitches.

Body: 5-11, 150-pounds. Wiry, athletic frame
Delivery: Low effort to moderate balance point, easy mover down the slope, makes his move w balance. Lands square - room for refinements in front side mechanics
Arm Action: LH. Moderate length w small stab, loose turn over as arm accelerates
FB: T83, 76-82 mph. Shows feel, ride/run upside T1824, 1659 average rpm.

+ '27 LHP Cayden McGrew (Evansville Reitz) is an up-and-coming southpaw from Evansville with several traits to dream on. Walking around with a wiry, high-waisted, 6-foot, 155 pound frame - McGrew showcased arm strength with an event-best 87 mph arm from the outfield before filling the zone at an above average clip in his 'pen. An athletic mover, McGrew ran his fastball up to 81 mph, while showing feel for a mid-60's slider and upper-60's change. McGrew repeats full circle arm action, a trait that should allow his overall velocities to louden as he adds strength to the immature frame.
