![]() Michael Main (USA Baseball)
|
Focus Area | Comments |
| FB Movement: | Main's fastball was fairly true without too much movement. |
| Slider: | Main's slider was up to about 84 mph and looked more like a hard slurve. |
| Changeup: | He has offspeed stuff, but didn't use it in this start. |
| Control: | His command was pretty good considering he was pitching in cold and damp conditions. |
| Poise: | Main showed good poise and mound presence, focusing through adverse conditions. |
| Physical Description: | Main is a tremendous athlete who would also garner consideration as an outfielder. |
| Medical Update: | Healthy. |
| Strengths: | Fastball velocity. |
| Weaknesses: | Secondary offerings. His slider got long at times in this start. |
| Summary: | This was a rather generic outing for Main, who was on a strict pitch count and was dealing with wind chill temperatures at around 30 degrees. Considering that he couldn't get a good feel for the ball, though, he handled himself well. It will be easier to get a better read when the weather in Florida warms up. |
