RHP Trey McNickle (JUCO) from St. Petersburg College
Some comments from Whittle:
quote:
He is a side armer that stands 6-foot-5 and about 200 pounds. According to the NJCAA website, he's 0-2 with a save this year. His ERA is 2.01 with 18 Ks in 31.1 innings. When Esposito saw him yesterday, he pitched two innings and got five ground balls and a pop out, which is what a side armer is supposed to do.
quote:
McNickle throws predominantly a fastball and slider but also mixes in a changeup, which is rare for a sidearm pitcher. His fastball is 82-84, which is average for a side-armer. The slider is good. The changeup is basically a slow fastball thrown in the mid-to-upper 70s. He's a walk-on with a chance to come in and compete right away for a roster spot. There will be for side-arm guys trying out next year with Hunter Privette, Austin Hill, and Kris Nelson. I can't see more than two guys being kept but that will be figured out later.
