05/01/2011 - College PREP - Farmingville (Long Island), NY Brian is a young, thin, lanky RHP who will graduate in 2012. On the mound, Brian has a long arm action, he gets on top of the ball, and he throws on a downhill plane. He has smooth separation, level shoulders, and good direction toward home plate. He is around the zone with his pitches and he lands in a square position. Brian can get better on the mound if he can avoid flying open, find a more consistent release point, and add arm strength. Offensively, Brian has a square set-up, he tracks the ball well, and his swing is repeatable. He swings a level bat, he makes contact, and he makes decent use of his lower 1/2. Hitting can get better if Brian can loosen his grip, avoid lunging, and add physical strength.
