Kade Morris

Nevada

Morris is really built like a big league pitcher. He's got the long, lean frame with the super-quick arm and steady delivery teams like to see. He's been used in a number of roles at Nevada, but most expect him to get a shot to start as he works his way into pro ball. Morris can rush it up to 96 with a four-seam and two-seam fastball, though he's ordinarily in the 92-93 range. His swing-and-miss weapon is a sweeping slider with significant break. 

He works in a curveball and a fringier changeup, but he's shown feel for each pitch at one point or another, all of which flash at least usable moving forward. Morris has the athletic, prototype delivery teams love, but he just hasn't missed as many bats as you'd expect in his collegiate career with the stuff he possesses.
