From: - http://www.brewerfan.net/ViewAmateurPlayerProfile.do?playerId=685&draftId=5 - Goeddel is all about polish, showing an advanced knowledge of pitching and a well-rounded arsenal. His fastball sits in the 89-93 range, and he has touched the mid-90s on occasion. He commands his fastball very well, and mixes in a sharp curveball and a nice sinking changeup. When his fastball and curveball are working together for him he records outs in bunches while maximizing pitch counts. He has a slender, projectable build with a strong mid-section and well-defined upper legs. He employs a slow, deliberate windup that offers a fair amount of deception while lulling hitters throughout his delivery. Goeddel has committed to play at UCLA.
