10/19/2019 - Mid Atlantic Regional Pitching/Catching & Offensive Skills Combined Weekend (Ages 12-14) Matthew is a coachable RHP/2B prospect who worked hard on his skills during the Accelerated Training Weekend. On the mound, Matthew gathers over the rubber and separates his hands on time. He works with a clean arm and accelerates through his release, staying inline towards the plate. Matthew shows a three pitch mix with his fastball topping out at 56mph. Breaking ball sits from 43-44mph with 12-6 break. Changeup sits from 50-52mph. Taking a longer stride can help Matthew improve as a pitcher. At the plate, this RHH sets up in an athletic stance and takes a centered stride. He is fluid getting into his load and hits against a strong front side. He gets good extension through the ball, producing loud contact and gap to gap pop. Matthew can improve as a hitter by consistently activating his hands. With five more years to develop, Matthew has the time and potential to further progress his skills on the field.
