Daniel Berlind is a 2006 right handed pitcher from Calabasas, CA with a big, tall body at 6-6, 215 lbs that's going to keep getting stronger in the future. He has very good pitching mechanics for a young pitcher his size. Berlind stays balanced in his delivery, hides the ball well behind a big leg kick and finishes well to the plate. His arm action is clean and easy and as a result Berlind was able to hit his spots and pitch to locations with all his pitches. His fastball topped out at 87 mph but that's just scratching the surface of what he might be throwing in a few years. Berlind varied the speed and break on his breaking ball between a low 70's curveball and an upper 70's slider and showed good feel for spinning the ball. His 77 mph change up had nice sink and fade to it. Berlind as committed to Cal Poly for college. It wouldn't surprise us if he shows up at a ballpark next spring or early in his college career throwing in the lower 90's and really getting the professional scouts excited.
