Luis Ortiz7-14-13 - Luis Ortiz’s previous experience on the showcase circuit was at USA Baseball’s National Team Identification Series in Cary, N.C., where parents of other players on his summer team, Central Cal Baseball Academy, raised the necessary funds for the 6-foot-3 pitcher to travel cross country and attend the event. The 17-year-old Ortiz turned heads with his natural arm strength, showing a 91-93 mph fastball and 80-82 mph slider. http://www.baseballamerica.com/draft/luis-ortiz-lights-up-radar-guns-at-pg-national/
7-2-13 - 11. Luis Ortiz- RHP, Sanger (CA) HS - 6’3, 220 RHP who sat 93-94, touched 95 at the Tournament of Stars http://www.ninebaseball.org/Wordpress/jeff-sullivans-top-100-2014-prospects/
7-5-13 - Luis Ortiz, RHP, Sanger HS (CA) - The 6’-3”, 220-pound right-hander will be almost 19 on draft day, making him one of the older players in his class. Because of this, his upside isn’t as high as others on this list. That said, his stuff is really good, and his fastball sits in the 92-95 mph range. He adds a developing plus slider that sits in the mid-80s, and his offspeed stuff is still in the developmental stages. He has great mound presence and feel for his pitches, and he also is a good athlete. http://throughthefencebaseball.com/prep-arms-chicago-cubs/34856#Vp7zJ4JvRevfV1fR.99
7-24-13 - 3. Luis Ortiz, rhp, Sanger (Calif.) High/San Diego Show - After losing 35 pounds in the last year, Ortiz has a strong, durable 6-foot-3, 210-pound build with strength in his lower half. Pitching exclusively from the stretch, the Fresno State signee looks effortless producing 92-95 mph velocity and sustains his velocity well. He reportedly hit 97 in early June. Ortiz gets good sink and armside run from his tick above three-quarters arm slot. He consistently throws strikes and has feel for multiple offspeed pitches. His low-80s slider with tight rotation has the makings of a plus pitch. A mid-80s changeup with tumble flashes average or better. http://www.baseballamerica.com/draft/tyler-koleks-heavy-fastball-among-tournament-of-stars-standouts/

8-21-13 – Area Code Games - 4. Luis Ortiz, rhp, Sanger (Calif.) High/San Diego Show - The 6-foot, 223-pound Ortiz has been one of the most consistent arms this summer. Working from the stretch with an easy delivery and three-quarter arm slot, Ortiz sat 91-94 mph, filling up the strike zone in two quick innings.

8-26-13 - Player: Luis Ortiz Primary Position: RHP Height/Weight: 6’3/220 Bats/Throws: R/R Home Town: Fresno, CA School: Sanger Travel Team(s): San Diego Show Class of: 2014 - 2013 Tournament of Stars notes from Don Olsen - Good frame, cleaned up a ton, looks stronger and more athletic and starting to really fire on all cylinders in a Yovani Gallardo type mold now. I am really impressed with the progress, showing the work ethic to play the game at a high level. Good arm action with a nice lower half that tends to be a bit upright in the release, could be leave it up with fatigue, and want to see in fuller workloads. Fastball was 91-93 (94) mph which is worked around, changed eye levels, and shows some backspin on it. Slider had good tilt, 83-84 mph, depth to be buried glove side, solid shot for above average offering. Change up, 83-84 mph, had some depth to it and arm showed good deception, solid projectable offering. Clean three pitch mix and workhorse frame with dedication to match, intriguing arm. http://bigleaguefutures.net/1/2013/08/26/2014-mlb-draft-profile/-luis-ortiz/
