11/13/2016 - College PREP - Plano (DFW), TX Matthew is a lean RHP who has a promising future on the diamond. On the bump, this righty throws a 3-pitch mix coming from a high 3/4 arm slot and loose/free arm action. He works through a strong balance point and has smooth overall actions. Arm strength is solid as indicated by his top velocity of 82 mph. FB ranges from 77-82 mph with tailing action. Breaking ball displays 11/5 shape with gradual break. He shows tailing action on his changeup but slows arm speed, tipping off pitch to hitters. Control is solid as he throws strikes with all his pitches. Getting on a long toss program will help to increase arm strength which will aid in his development on the mound. At the plate he shows solid hitting abilities with outstanding power potential. Hands are quick (85 mph exit velocity) and work through an aggressive swing path. He has strength in his swing and works inside the ball, utilizing all fields with gap to gap pop. Power will increase as he works to utilize his lower half more aggressively. With 2 years to further develop, Matthew has abilities with time and room to progress his game.
