Matthew Wade is a lean very projectable 6'0/170 RHP from Orange, CA. He was one of the pitchers who didn’t throw 90 in Tropicana Field, usually not an invitation to high prospect rankings. But he can really carve up a strike zone with his 4-pitch arsenal. His live 88 mph fastball looks plenty quick when used in tandem with two sharp and very different looking breaking balls. Wade was one of the top pitchers in Tropicana Field. His size might cause MLB scouts to shy away, but he can pitch at any college in America. Real true pitchers with MLB average fastballs are hard to find. This kid is one of them and he projects to get stronger and better. Matthew is a very good student.

Wade is a live bodied athlete with a very quick arm. He threw 86-90 mph during his three innings of work in Peoria with an easy, free throwing arm stroke. Wade also showed three different secondary pitches that had some quality to them. He threw a slider at 75 mph that had some tight break and even cut his fastball occasionally at 83 mph. Wade’s curveball varied between 63-67 mph, a little soft but with good spin. His change up was probably his best secondary pitch, with good sinking life down low in the zone. Wade is a very good athlete who can play the outfield and swing the bat, too. He even ran a 6.9 60 in Peoria. Excellent "05" prospect as both an outfielder and especially as a pitcher..
