2015 National Underclass Showcase-Main Event
Connor Rudy is a 2017 LHP/OF with a 6-0 155 lb. frame from Charlotte, NC who attends Ardrey Kell HS. Long and lean build, lots of physical projection. Extended 3/4's arm slot, easy tempo to start his delivery with late acceleration to the plate, works downhill well and creates some angle to his pitches. Fastball topped out at 82 mph, has nice life on his fastball and works it around the zone, spots his fastball effectively to the glove side especially. Change up is his better off-speed pitch at present, tends to slow his arm on both his change up and a slurve type breaking ball. Improvement in his off speed with be key to his development. 6.86 runner, showed nice athleticism in the outfield that will help his projection on the mound. Switch hitter at the plate, has a good right handed swing with looseness and the beginnings of some bat speed, has some ability to pull and lit the ball. Left handed swing has less strength behind it. Good student.
