This is the guy you’ve been saving for. I mean just look at this [extension](https://x.com/shooterhunt/status/1754633725756002335?s=46) he gets here. High spin rate pitcher just like Meccage that has a good feel for the breaking stuff for a prep kid. Command needs work (which is almost all high school pitchers) but yeah this kid and Meccage is where your money is going. Curious to see the deals because id venture to guess we might have more money than you’d think to work with on day 2/3.
This is why Matt Arnold plays the under slot game on certain picks.
Remains to be seen how well the Matt Arnold led FO can develop these high spin highschool arms but if they show a good deal of success with Knoth Levonas and Meccage it really opens up the draft grabbing some upside in the comp rounds.
What, exactly do they mean by him having, “an aggressive head-whack”?
Levonas had a 0.44 ERA in 31.2 innings, striking out 68.
