Scouts at a pre-Christmas tournament timed the loose, lanky righthander as high as 97 mph. Coupled with Harrington's raw velocity is an advanced concept of how to locate the ball and move it around the strike zone. In addition to maintaining his velocity during the spring, Harrington must work on developing better feel with his breaking stuff. He has thrown both a curveball and a slider during the last year, but tends to throw the curve too soft and the slider too hard. Curveball, fastball movement, athleticism.
Torres is an above-average athlete with long, loose arms and legs.
While some pitchers can't get their curveballs over the plate consistently from such an angle, Torres appears to have no problem. His curve has sharp biting action and good two-plane break. Mechanical consistency, injury history. His best pitch, though, is a hard overhand curve that has a late, downward break. Wheatland also plays first base, and even hit a home run at the World Junior Championship.
