The separator is the ANGLE: 13.7" of ride released from just 4.3–5.2 feet off the ground with 6.6–6.8' of extension — a submarine-flat approach from the left side that makes ordinary carry play like elite carry. Hitters see uphill fastballs and a changeup falling off the same shelf.
The Late-Developer Case
Two-sport (Delano hockey) · 7.12 sixty, 90.5 EV as an OF · PG barely knows him: 3 events, 85 on their gun before the jump
| Look | Date | Sitting | Max |
| MN Top Prospect Games | 6/23/26 | 81.8–84.3 | 84.8 |
| PG tournament (their gun) | 7/29/26 | — | 85 |
| Future Games day 1 | 7/24/26 | 84–86 | 86.3 |
| Future Games day 2 | 7/25/26 | 86–88 | 89.2 |

Best PG game log: 6.0 IP / 8 K (6/27). Nationally unranked — nobody's priced the jump yet.
