Francesco Capocci
Denmark, Cumming, GA
Capocci is a long, lanky righty with fantastic athleticism spread throughout his game. He's been up to 96, but more commonly rests in the low-90s, but it's a metrically appealing fastball showcasing impressive riding action at its best. Capocci as shows feel for spin, and the innate ability to drop and drive creating a lower release height. He's got a cutterish slider and a more definitive curveball, both of which has shown the ability to miss bats. Capocci fills up the zone and doesn't walk batters either. Where he can get in trouble is with his tempo on the bump. He's been really strong over multiple innings, but can waver at times, losing his release point and "stuff" as he rushes down the bump. As Capocci gets stronger and better understands his body and what he's capable of, his ability to hold over longer outings should come naturally.
Mack - Not much on him yet, but we probably should remember anyone that hits 96 in High School.

96, before entering his senior year? Capozzi will be a 100 guy by spring, perhaps?
