Zachary Bird is a 2012 RHP/IF with a 6-4 188 lb. frame from Jackson, MS who attends Murrah HS. Very long limbed, square shouldered build. Full delivery, high compact arm action, high 3/4's release, will occasionally spin off on release, has some deception. 4-Seam fastball steady 86-88 mph, works downhill well, throws cutter at 85, very effective pitch especially from the stretch. Big 70 mph curveball for strikes, threw slider only in warm ups, change up shows potential if thrown more. Around the plate, could have the whole basket of pitches and a feel for using them. Has been up to 91 frequently in the past. Excellent student, signed with Southern Mississippi.
PG Grade 10.0

Zachary Bird is a 2012 RHP/OF with a 6-4 185 lb. frame from Jackson, MS who attends Murrah HS. Very long limbed athlete, projects very well. High leg raise delivery, tends to drift to third base and needs more consistent direction to the plate, high 3/4's arm slot, gets downhill very well. Upper 80's fastball, topped out at 90 mph, mostly straight but with good angle. Very big downer curveball that looks like it's coming down from the lights, sldier separate pitch with good tilt and bite at times. Around the plate with all pitches but not spotting the ball yet. Very athletic actions, ran 6.83 and played some centerfield, showed power potential at the plate. Could take some time but a high ceiling talent. Outstanding student.
