6/16/20 Pitching
Scouting Notes:Definite follow on the mound here. Uptempo right-hander with a very loose arm. More velocity to come as he fills out that 5-foot-11, athletic frame. Fastball hovered around the 80 mph mark and he has good feel for the spin. Changeup is also well above average for class. A strike thrower that straight carved with a steady dose of all three. Going to be a good one once velo pops.
