Ortiz is a promising two-way prospect committed to Virginia. He has a lithe, projectable 6-foot-3 frame. On the mound, he has an abbreviated arm action with a high back elbow, but he finishes cleanly out front and typically pitches in the upper 80s with his fastball, showing impressive control of the strike zone. He throws a sharp 11-to-5 breaking ball that flashes average and projects as an out pitch if he can continue to tighten it. Ortiz shows smooth actions in the infield and flashes line-drive ability at the plate, leading to varying opinions from scouts on where he's best-suited long term. His commitment to Virginia means he's likely to be a difficult sign, but he could be a good college player and a more substantial draft prospect in three years.
