Notes from the Field: Day Two (3.18.16)

Scouting Report: Polished lefty with a simple, repeatable delivery. Undersized and on the skinny side. Limited projection in body. Starts from the extreme third base side of the rubber. Typically uses three-quarters arm slot, but will drop to sidearm with two strikes to give hitters another look. Compact, efficient delivery with clean arm action and some deception. Good pitchability; has a plan for each batter and knows what he wants to do. Very good pick-off move that is deceptive and very subtle. Fastball works in the 84-88 mph range. Primarily cuts the pitch, but will also show arm-side run. Throws strikes and has solid command. Slider works 78-82 mph with short break, and can look like a cutter at times. Changeup works 76-80 mph, on the lower end of the velocity band when throwing over the top and the higher end when thrown sidearm. Solid differential between fastball at lower velocity band. Does not have a typical profile, but has a chance as a lefty who can pound the strike zone, has deception and can manipulate the ball, giving hitters different looks.
