2011 National Showcase
Robert Whalen is a 2012 RHP/3B with a 6-2 200 lb. frame from Davenport, FL who attends Haines City HS. Solid athletic build, good present strength. Well paced hands over head delivery, high 3/4's arm slot, arm works well, tends to drift out in delivery at times, good leverage and angle when he stays back. Fastball to 91 mph, cuts fastball very effectively at times. Flashes hard curveball spin and bite, will drop release point on curve at times and get under it, nice feel for change up as well. Rushes from the stretch and loses stuff at times. Inconsistent mechanics but flashes some very nice pitches, could really improve with some pretty easy adjustments. Follow carefully. Verbal commitment to Florida Atlantic.
