Scouting Report
& Links |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|

Physical Description: Medium,
athletic frame. Has a good amount of projection left and should
add strength as he matures.
Mechanics:
Throws from a high three-quarters arm slot from the middle of
the rubber. Steps backwards toward first base before a
medium-to-high leg kick prior to delivery. Finishes off-balance
towards first base, with a pronounced post-delivery right leg
kick up. Quick arm with short arm action. Moderate arm effort.
Solid control for his age.
Fastball:
95-98 mph. Tops out at 99 mph. Pitch shows good carry. Command
and control need work. Potential plus-to-better offering
Curveball: 84-86 mph. Advanced for his age.
Good feel for spin. Gets over the pitch and can snap it off. Can
locate in the zone or out of the zone looking for swinging
strikes. Potential plus offering.
Changeup:
87-90. Inconsistent, but will flash bat-missing ability with the
ability to pull the string on it with late fading action.
Potential above-average offering.

Career
Notes: Was not a highly-touted amateur prospect out of
Venezuela. Began to show much higher promise after signing,
particularly in the Tricky League in the summer of 2019. Emerged
quickly as a prospect to follow. Was limited to one game due to
injuries in 2021. Organization then heavily monitored his
workload in 2022, limiting him to three innings per start. Still
broke out and rose quickly into the SoxProspects top 20 by the
end of the season. Earned a promotion to Salem following the end
of the 2022 FCL season. Was set to participate in the 2022 Fall
Performance Program that was cancelled due to Hurricane Ian.
Summation:
Potential major league starter. Ceiling of a number two starter.
Wide variance arm with a high-ceiling and low-floor. Has shown
among the best raw stuff of any arm in the system and was
identified by scouts as the top pitching prospect in the Florida
Complex League in 2022. Will flash two plus pitches and three at
least above-average pitches. All have shown bat-missing ability.
Next step in his development is finding consistency with his
delivery and showing he can handle a starter’s workload.
This page will be updated with a scouting
report after the scouting team has seen the player in person.
