Scouting Scratch: Low minors arms (3.26.14)
Notes from the Field: Day Two (3.18.16)
Released (March 2018) |
Physical
Description: Tall, lanky frame. Lacks strength. Even though he is
very skinny, frame doesn’t look like it can support significant weight
gain.
Mechanics: Switched to throwing sidearm for
the 2016 season. Previously threw from a high three-quarters arm slot. Arm
heavy and poor posture.
Fastball: High-80s. Tops
out at 92 mph. Shows some sink on occasion, but mostly lacks life and is
on the straight side.
Slider: 82-84 mph.
Changeup: 81-83 mph. Decent arm speed and some drop.
Career Notes: Was home-schooled. Was scouted through
playing on local travel teams. Had Tommy John surgery in March 2012.
Summation: Has already spent three years in the
complex leagues, so switch to side-arm a chance to see if something might
click as stuff was below-average with little deception in prior delivery.
