RHP Ian Aoki (Ashwaubenon, 2025) is a well-built, talented righty who had a nice showing at the Green Bay event. He worked 85-87, topping at 87.2 mph with the fastball from a downhill angle, showing the ability to hit his spots. His curveball has tight 10/4 break, a pitch he also showed the ability to land in the zone. Aoki sells his changeup, throwing it out of the same tunnel as the fastball. It’s a pitch with depth at 77-79 mph. The Ashwaubenon junior uses a quick sidestep delivery into a high balanced leg lift with a controlled stride and balanced finish. His arm path is short but quick, consistently on-time out of a high-¾ slot.
