Combs isn't nearly as physical as fellow Kentucky prep lefthander Chase Mullins (Bourbon County HS), but scouts give him the edge as a prospect because of his advanced pitchability. He also beat the state's top prospect, Henry Clay High righty Walker Buehler, with a shutout in late April. Combs is just 6 feet and 160 pounds but he can touch 90 mph with his fastball. He usually sits at 87-88 mph and tails off in the late innings. His secondary pitches make his fastball play up, as his curveball projects as a potential plus and his changeup projects as slightly above-average. He throws all three offerings for strikes and should make an instant impact as a freshman if he makes it to the University of Kentucky.
