2027 RHP Will Steinman has asserted himself as one of the top 2027 arms in the province and has really impressed over his two bullpens these past two weeks on the TrackMan. Projection in the frame at 6-foot, 160-pounds and it’s an easy, effortless delivery with a clean arm that had his fastball sitting 87-88mph (up to 89.5mph in late March). The OBJ right-hander spins the breaking ball well at 72-74mph (2695rpm) and also features a changeup at 80-81mph. A must-see arm this summer in Ontario’s 2027 class and should draw significant interest while playing south of the border.
