Richey

6/10/15 - The 6 foot 2, 185-pound prospect posted a 7.38 60 time. Defensively Richey had an 87 mph position velocity from the outfield showing good arm strength. Richey throws from a high ¾ arm slot with long arm action and has accuracy and carry on his throws. Has average hands, fluid footwork, plays through the ball aggressively. Offensively from the right side, Richey had a 93 mph exit velocity off the tee. Hits from a balanced setup with a short stride, good balance, generates good bat speed, shows some pull-side power in batting practice. He went 0-for-5 in game play.  On the mound, 6-foot-2, 185-pound prospect with strong and athletic frame, uses long arm action and works through a high-3/4 slot, shows some quickness in arm, good tempo in delivery, pounds the strike zone with two-pitch mix, showed similar velocity as last fall as fastball sat 81-83 mph touching 84, throws a hard breaking ball with tight spin and slider-type action at 74-77 mph, allowed two hits (bloop and infield single) and struck out two in his two innings of work.

11/1/14 - 6-foot-1, 180-pound prospect, strong/athletic body. Offensively he hits from a balanced stance, good lower half usage with a short, toe tap stride, level swing path, ball jumps off bat when squared, shows power potential to the pull side, posted a 4.53 home to first base time, 87 mph exit velocity, went 1-for-4 in game play with a sharp single. Defensively shows decent movement in the outfield, accurate throws with long arm action from the high 3/4 slot, 85 mph arm strength. Versatile and can pitch as well. 2016 prospect to follow.  On the mound, uses long arm action through a high- 3/4 arm slot and across the body delivery, fastball sat 81-84 touching 85 mph with arm side run, produces a lot of ground balls, secondary pitch shows slider action with tight spin and lateral movement at 71-74 mph, gave up one hit and struck out three in two solid innings of work, would like to see him add a change-up to arsenal.
