COMMENT: Extremely tall with thin, narrow frame. Body similar to Mark Mulder. High kick, cross-fire delivery. Touches 89 mph. Good hand speed, natural tail. Varies four off-speed pitches. Slider, change are best pitches. Sweeping, rotating slider is OK to lefties. Much-improved change, deceptive with sink, will throw anytime.

COMMENT: Large frame, well-proportioned, similar body type to Mike Remlinger. Low three-quarter delivery, good mechanics. Fastball velocity occasionally touches average. Curveball with three-quarter sweep break is best pitch. Slider similar to curve, with harder velocity, flatter plane. Shows start of circle change.
COMMENT: Medium frame. Fastball mostly 87-88 mph with tail. Good feel for breaking balls. Three-quarter delivery curve with good rotation, throws for strikes. Harder, sharper, three-quarter, slurvy-slider with bite and depth through zone.
COMMENT: Large frame, sturdy build, similar to Darren Oliver. Delivery tad herky-jerky with some effort. Flashes average fastball (87-89 mph) with fringe tail, sink, best when down. Slurve-type curveball especially effective vs. lefties. Big, strong with enough arm. Needs better control and consistency.
