Notes

3/16/25
Gooch is a really interesting junior, ultra-athletic within a 6-foot, 170 pound frame. He sat 86-88 with athleticism present in a simple delivery. The arm is quick and he spun an abv avg slider for the age at 72-75 (2326 avg) that played with sweep. There was feel to kill spin (1401) on a fading 75-77 change but he slows a touch on it. In total, the athlete is what I like here - he is just coming off basketball so I expect this to be the basement of his velos for his this year, especially considering he was up to 90 last fall. He worked out as a position player prior, slinging 92 from short and 95 from the outfield, while also turning in a burner 30 yard split at 3.73, equivalent to around a 6.6-6.7 range in the 60. Gooch has a chance to polish further which adds to the upside, and he is one of the better uncommitted right-handers that Indiana's junior class has to offer.
