12-9-22 - 2022 Fall Report: Southern Miss

The centerpiece of the pitching staff will remain righthander Tanner Hall, of course. After going 9-3, 2.81 with a sparkling 146-14 K-BB mark in 109 innings last year, Hall spent the summer with Team USA, allowing just three hits over four shutout innings while striking out seven in his lone start in the Netherlands. 

Hall dealt with some shoulder soreness this fall, and Berry said his arm slot was noticeably lower, but he checked out fine and will spend the winter resting up for the spring. 

He’s the epitome of a proven commodity, with advanced command of an 87-93 mph sinker from a low three-quarters slot, a dastardly changeup that he manipulates extraordinarily well, and a useful slider at 78-82.

Tanner Hall

Southern Miss

Despite his absolutely overwhelming numbers, Hall doesn't have prototypical overwhelming stuff. 

The fastball is heavy and it can get up to 92, but usually sits 89-91 with ease on the mound. It's a bowling ball heater that he commands brilliantly, some calling his feel for the pitch comfortably double-plus. He does, however, possess a slider that is a legitimate weapon. It's a low-80s sweeper that misses an immense amount of bats. 

His changeup doesn't have a ton of separation, but it does tumble hard at the plate and tunnels well off the fastball. Hall might not have huge stuff, but his exceptional feel for the strike zone, starter traits and above average breaking ball should get him drafted nice and early.

Tanner Hall sounds interesting several rounds down.
