+ Parker Springman, RHP/C, Greenfield-Central: Springman is a lean, wiry, 5-foot-10, 160 pounder with a variety of skills shown, though I liked it best on the mound at this event. He pitched at 79-82 with an up-tempo, rushed-at-times delivery that begins with an overhead pump. The arm is loose and is his best tool, and he showed a developing top-down CB at 67-70, along with a 73-74 change that was his best pitch om this day. There is two-way upside and the arm strength translates to the crouch, where he was up to 77 during catch and throw evals with pops ranging from 2.10 to 2.29. At the dish, Springman starts in a wider stance with a heavy push out of the backside that he uses as a forward move. The swing is wristy and works out-front, producing a max exit velocity of 90.7 mph.
