Comments from Prep Baseball Report -- 3.12.17 - 6-foot-2, 182-pound two-way player, lanky projectable frame. Projects best on the mound, delivery is directional, works over front side. Quick arm with slightly shorter action, high ¾ slot. Fastball topped at 82 mph, sat 79-81 mph, mostly straight, occasional arm side action. Curveball has short tight action, ranged 66-71 mph. Changeup shows deception, 65-69 mph. Right-handed hitter, wide setup, short heel lift stride. Path showed extension, slight uphill plane, gap to gap type approach. Showed bat strength, 89 mph exit velocity from the tee. Defensively moved well, loose actions, showed athleticism going to backhand. Arm is high ¾ slot, 73 mph across. 7.30 runner in the 60.
Hunter Rosenbaum continued to impress on the week by striking out two in his inning of work and running his fastball up to 89 mph.
+ 2019 RHP Hunter Rosenbaum (Webster HS, WI) had been a name that had created some buzz recently as there were rumors of a velocity uptick. Those rumors held true, as the tall, proportionally-strong right-hander sent his first fastball in at 89 mph. He would settle in at 86-87 in his inning of work, and throw one slider at 80 mph. Rosenbaum has a pitcher’s build at 6-foot-2, 182-pounds, and a strong arm that releases out of a high ¾ slot. I am looking forward to seeing Rosenbaum toe the rubber, again, on Saturday.
