+ I loved my look at the southpaw in a conference matchup with LaPorte. Barrett is one of the most consistent strike-throwers in the state at 5-foot-9, 160 pounds and he poured in strikes with multiple pitches in this look. The fastball sat 85-87 the first two innings and he settled in at 83-85 the next 4.2 innings – it played with carry and flashed arm-side run at times. My favorite pitch was the 76-78 mph changeup, thrown with fastball arm-speed and dropping off the table late. He was comfortable throwing it in most counts. Barrett also showed feel to land his 74-77 mph breaking ball for strikes and induce swing-and-miss when needed – the pitch showed 2/8 shape. The delivery is balanced throughout, he lifts to a taller balance point before an athletic move down the slope with in-line shoulders present. The arm works clean on the backside to a ¾ slot. I love the pitch-ability with Barrett, he’s confident to throw any pitch in pretty much any count and the velocity is starting to tick.

+ Athletic, 5-foot-9, 160 pounder. The fastball plays at 84-86 and he can manipulate it with carry or run. The breaking ball spins in the 2400s with 2/8 shape in the mid-70s, and he commands a 75-77 changeup. The delivery is equally balanced and athletic and he remains in-line with quiet eyes throughout. The pitchability here is some of the best in the class and the stuff is ticking up to go along with a winning track record. His ability to pitch backwards plays the velo up, as well. The size and lack of premier velo may cause some hesitation from recruiters, but whoever believes in Barrett enough to give him an opportunity will get an uber-competitive strike-thrower with the moxie to throw any pitch in any count.
