View Draft Report
After two years of tepid bullpen performance, Powers moved into the rotation as a junior. He consistently sits 90-93 mph, touching 94 with a delivery that works fairly easily. His fastball can be straight without much lateral wiggle or life from a high three-quarters arm slot. His top secondary pitch is a curveball that flashes average at its best. His changeup will also need considerable development to reach average. Powers has been a marginal strike-thrower this year without missing many bats, with 6.4 strikeouts per nine and 3.7 walks per nine. The 6-foot-5, 210-pounder has a large, durable frame built for starting, but his secondary stuff will have to improve to remain in the rotation, so some scouts project him as a power bullpen arm.
