7/18/17 - 5-foot-11, 175-pound primary pitcher impressed at the plate going 5-for-11 with a double and a walk over the course of the two day event. Whitton ran a 7.57 60-yard dash, and registered a 75 mph bat exit velocity at a previous PBR event this summer. On the mound, the righty sat 75-78 out of a high 3/4 arm slot. He also displayed a curveball with 11/5 shape at 65-66. Whitton worked three innings showing solid command and the ability to hold his velocity out of the stretch.
6/27/17 - 5-foot-11, 180-pound primary pitcher sat 75-76 with some armside run to his fastball out of a high 3/4 arm slot. Arm action is short in back and long out front and Whitton gets downhill well. Slider with short, late break at 70-72 is best secondary offering at this point in his development. Also displayed a curveball with 11/5 rotation at 67-69 and a changeup at 67-69. Whitton ran a 7.57 60-yard dash and registered 75 mph arm strength across the infield defensively, a number that will improve as he works to play through the baseball. The right-handed hitter starts from a square stance and utilizes a short, lift-and-replace stride to initiate his swing. Ties himself up at times due to tendency to stride and hit at the same time. Showcased a 75 mph bat exit velocity.
