RHP T.J. Burton, who has committed to Northeastern, has an ideal pitcher's build (6-foot-3, 175 pounds) and a smooth, effortless delivery. Scouts project him to fill out, which should enable him to throw harder. He doesn't generate a lot of movement on his 90-91 mph fastball coming from a high arm slot. His curveball and changeup have the potential to become average pitches.
