Colton Watts, RHP, Harrison : Looking the part of a tough-look reliever, Watts rolled out and showcased a unique, over-the-top arm slot that helped to create ride on an 87-88.5 mph fastball. His mid-70s curveball works top-to-bottom to play off the high-ride heater and his 79-80 CH played with big arm-side tilt and run. Stretch-only, high-intent operation with some quirk to the arm action. Outlier slot and hulking, 6-foot-4, 205 lb frame stand out most.

Watts emerged as a big winner with his physical, 6-foot-4, 205 pound frame. The fastball is unique from a metric perspective, sitting 88-89 from a 6'5" release height & 6'4" extension & averaging 19.4" of IVB while reaching over 23" at times. The fastball provides a super steep vertical approach & his 73-76 curveball plays off it with top to bottom action. He lacked repeatability at times, but it is a super deceptive look with a fastball that likely plays above barrels.
