Drake has the cleanest arm amongst the group of 2028 LHP's highlighted and repeats a full circle arm action that I think will help him continue to get better. His athletic, 5-foot-10" 165 lb frame already includes some twitch evident in the 6.79 60-yard dash he turned in during the morning. The fastball sat 79-81 and touched 82 on his best bullet. He showed a faded low-70s change along with developing feel for spin.
