Evan Reifert is still a name to dream on
-Low 3/4 delivery has tons of deception
-Steep Gyro SL posting gaudy Chase & Whiff rates
-Able to zone SI well w/ good depth
-Led AAA w/ 47.5% Whiff% min. 500 pitches
Dealt w/ injuries but can be a quality MLB arm

@Homein22@PitchingNinja I’m with you. His slider has caught all the headlines up to this point, but his ability to sit 94-96 with that wicked sinker PLUS a 4-seam has been most impressive to me. This is a legit big league caliber arm. (The slider is just as good as advertised, too)
