RHP Cole Evans (Timberland, 2023) was another arm that threw two clean innings of work, punching out a handful of batters en route to a scoreless outing. At 6-foot-1, 170-pounds, Evans generates natural run and sink on his fastball from a ¾ slot, pounding the bottom of the zone at 80-82 mph. He effectively spun a high-60s slider off his fastball’s plane for strikes, especially to the arm-side of the plate, and also mixed in a low spin changeup at 73-76 mph.
RHP Cole Evans (Timberland, 2023) recently attended the GBA Scout Day in late May and he looked the part at Wednesday’s event, too. Evans pumped his low-spin, heavy fastball in at 81-83 mph from a deceptive ¾ arm slot, working east-to-west and around the zone. He threw a 68-69 mph slider for strikes on a consistent basis, and averaged 13 inches of horizontal movement on his high-60s changeup while effectively limiting spin.
