6-foot-1, 160-pound right-handed pitcher. The delivery is solid in tempo and the arm works quick/clean. The direction is solid and he shows the makings of plus stuff. The fastball sat 87-88 mph with arm side action and sink to it. The spin pitch is a slider, sitting 74-76 mph and late in tilt. The changeup is a solid pitch as it shows fade and sinking action. Good looking young arm.

6-foot-1, 160-pound quick armed right-handed pitcher. The fastball sat 87-88 mph with arm side action to it. The command of the pitch is solid. The breaking ball is solid in shape, 70-71 mph. The pitch needs to be thrown with a bit more hand speed to it. The changeup was 77-78 mph and showed fade to it. The delivery is solid in tempo and the arm is clean/quick. The process is repeated and he works quickly. The stuff continues to improve as he matures in age.

6-foot, 145-pound right-handed pitcher. The delivery is solid in tempo and the arm works free and clean. The arm is quick and comes out of a 3/4 slot. The feet are online and he moves athletically throughout the process. The addition of strength and weight should aid the process for him as he has a chance to be a legit guy on the mound. The fastball sat 83-84 mph with arm side action and command of the baseball. The spin pitch is a slider that is big in shape, sitting 61-62 mph. The changeup is a developing pitch for him. He is a guy to follow in the coming years.
