Mitchell Mussler is a 2020 RHP/OF with a 6-1 175 lb. frame from Clearwater, FL who attends Dunedin. Medium frame with beginnings of strength. Primary right handed pitcher with a small rock step to high leg lift delivery. Stays tall on back side at gather and worked to the plate with tall and fall actions. Quick arm circle at take back and released from a high three-quarters to near over top arm slot. Fastball generated good downhill plane through the zone in the mid to upper 70's, topped at 79 miles per hour. Curveball had 11/5 shape with solid spin and occasional late depth in the low 70's. Also flashed a changeup offering in the low 70's. Consistently changed tempo of delivery to keep hitters off balance while challenging the bottom of the zone with all three pitches. Also worked out defensively from the outfield showing deliberate footwork while closing to the baseball. Funnels out front and generated momentum towards the bag while working through transition. Released from a three-quarters slot topping at 79 miles per hour. Right handed hitter with an upright, even stance and quick front side trigger. Worked to contact with rotational lower half actions. Direct hand path to baseball with a line drive barrel plane through extension. Stays on back side throughout swing and lets baseball travel to a deeper position at contact. Primarily looked to work to the middle of the field and opposite field gap. Very good student as well.
