Lean, athletic frame from a 3/4 slot. Up tempo delivery with some late arm side life to the FB. Flashed a 10-to-4 CB that alternated between CB/Slurve action. Free and easy arm that will continue to add velocity. Mixed one change up at 70 MPH.

Reinoso stands in at 5-foot-8, 142-pounds with a lean athletic frame. Ran a 7.9 60.- Sets up slightly open with his feet just outside his shoulders. Knees are bent slightly with an upright torso. Hands are held above back shoulder with little pre-pitch bat movement. On pitch his trigger is knee raise striding forward to square up with pitcher while his hands move back into a good hitting position. Has good lower body rotation getting whole frame involved with swing. Hands are quick to the hitting zone with upward lift bat action into a high two handed finish. Timing was off allowing the ball to get deep into the hitting zone. A quicker setup and trigger with aggression getting the barrel to the ball will improve bat path. Projectable with a smooth swing. Recorded an exit velocity of 76 mph. Good footwork and approach to baseball. Moves right/left well with good fielding mechanics. Transition from glove to throwing hand is quick and fluid with a quick release. Fields ball well on the run. Mechanics and hands are fluid and will only get better with increased speed and agility. Recorded a positional arm velocity 75. Pitching- On mounds works from an over the top arm angle with short loose arm action. Keeps body closed hiding ball well. Quick mechanics on delivery with good balance falling to first base side on follow through. Quick to the plate from the stretch. Fastball was 75-76 topping out at 77 MPH with late movement. Curveball showed 12-6 action at 66-68 MPH. Maintained similar arm speed with both pitches.
