Nov 2020 Report
Evaluator: Matt Thompson
Age: 25 yr
Height: 6-2
Weight: 185 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2017 Draft - Round 4
RuleV: Eligible
Physical Description: Good body, limited projection. Mature durable build.
Delivery & Mechanics: Uses an abbreviated windup, has toned down hand movement since college. Throws across body with low 3/4 arm slot and will vary timing. Gets himself in strong fielding position after delivery. Repeats mechanics very well.
Fastball: Sinker, his primary pitch. Gets weak contact more than swing and misses, bottom falls out of the pitch making it difficult to square up. Works everything low in the zone. Above-average pitch. Leans heavily on it. Can touch 95. Sits 91-94. Grade: 55
Slider: His best secondary pitch. Good movement but doesn't miss bats, instead getting more groundballs. Will throw the pitch in any count and it plays well off of the sinker. Grade: 50
Control and Command: Control over command profile. Throws strikes but will leak over the middle of the plate too much. When he's in sync he lives on the lower quadrants and even below the zone. Thin margin for error and below average command is living on the fringes of a big league roster. Control: 50 | Command: 40
Overall: Future relief arm. Could get some extra ticks on the fastball with a permanent shift to the pen. Ability to work multiple innings increases big league utility with expanded staffs.
OFP: 35
Role: 30 - Up/Down Emergency Depth
