Casey is a LHP from Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory who will graduate in 2022. This talented and athletic left-handed pitcher shows good mechanics and feel for the game on the mound. Threw his entire arsenal from a high ¾ arm slot with good tempo. He showed the ability to fill up the strike zone consistently and landed 71% of his pitches for strikes. His fast ball sat in the 80-82 MPH range, while he used both his curveball with 2-8 shape and his changeup with some depth to keep hitters off balance.
