6/17/2015 3:41:45 PM

Bryse Wilson (2016 RHP, Hillsborough, NC) was more than effective in his two innings on the mound, living comfortably in the 91-93 mph rang, peaking at 94 mph with his fastball. He shows a quick right arm coming through the backside with the ability to consistently live down in the zone, featuring late life to his arm side. Though he worked primarily off his fastball, the University of North Carolina commit also showed a late fading changeup at 82 mph and a slider at 77 mph.

Jordan Balazovic (2016 RHP, Mississauga, ON) is a long and loose right-hander from Canada with a whippy arm action through the backside, topping at 90 mph while working comfortably in the upper-80s. He showed the ability to get down to his glove side and did so while showing a feel for his off speed.

Colton Welker (2016 SS, Coral Springs, FL) kept his weight back and put a really nice swing on a right-handed slider, driving the pitch to the opposite field gap for a standup double, showing a short and quick path to the ball.

JJ Bleday (2016 LHP, Panama City Beach, FL) and Kyle Muller (2016 LHP, Dallas, TX) are two left-handers who matched up for the third and fourth innings with each showing interesting stuff on the mound. Bleday, a Vanderbilt commit whose athleticism was on display earlier in the day with batting practice, showed a fastball up to 87 mph with a nice feel for his curveball that showed nice depth down in the zone. In the opposite dugout was Muller, a University of Texas commit, who throws from a high three-quarter ran his fastball up to 90 mph creating solid angle with the ability to get to his glove side and bust right-handed hitters in. He also featured a big curveball in the low-to-mid 70s with depth and nice feel for it. Muller ended up with three strikeouts on the day. 

Aaron Schunk (2016 SS, Decatur, GA) made a nice play up the middle in the top of the fourth, showing off quick feet and solid athleticism to pick a ball and delivery an off balance strike to first base. Stepping into the box in the next inning, Schunk squared up an 87 mph for some of the louder contact of the day to dead center field for a standup double.

Travis Marr (2016 RHP, Castle Rock, CO) was another right-handers from Colorado and ran his fastball up to 90 mph while sitting comfortably in the upper-80s. Uncommitted, Marr showed a nice feel for both his curveball in the mid-70s and his changeup that worked consistently at 80 mph. He throws from an extended three-quarter slot and does a nice job of working down in the zone with each offering.

Wyatt Tyson (2016 RHP, Red Lion, PA) is a 6-foot-2 right-hander committed to Campbell University who worked the fifth and sixth innings for the Gold team. Showing a balanced delivery, Tyson worked in the 85-88 mph range with his fastball, showing life on the pitch with the ability to work down in the zone. Complementing his fastball, the Pennsylvania native showed a 12-6 curveball with some depth in the mid-70s.

Nathan Sweeney (2016 RHP, Centennial, CO) rounded out the first day of impressive arms out of Colorado, working in the 88-91 mph range with his fastball, peaking at 92. He shows a fast right arm coming through the backside and does a nice job of getting on top of the ball. Working mostly off of his fastball, the uncommitted Sweeney also showed a 12-6 curveball in the low-70s that served as a put away pitch.

Closing out the day on what was a pitcher dominated game, University of North Carolina commit Gianluca Dalatri (2016 RHP, Wall, NJ) pounded the bottom half of the strike zone with a three pitch mix. Working in the 88-90 mph range comfortably while touching 91 from an easy and extended three-quarter arm slot, Dalatri also showed a slider up to 79 mph and a low-to-mid-70s curveball. Over two innings, Dalatri collected an impressive five strikeouts.

Though it goes down in the book as an L5, Florida Atlantic commit Pedro Pages (2016 C, Doral, FL) kept his weight back well and barreled up a 73 mph curveball, coming off that bat at 101 mph according to TrackMan.
