Anyone know anything about this guy?

According to Jim Breen he's 16 and has a fastball that touches 91. He also has a curveball and slider.

Quite literally, all it takes to get me modestly excited. If you touch 91 as a 16 year old, you might blow out your arm and never touch it again, but chances are you'll add to that, and what's more, you get a young guy in who already throws a slider, curve and we'll drill a change into his head...

 

Good deal.
