| Summary: Physical two-way presence with real strength and arm speed, but the mound is where the upside separates. Beliveau has shown a lightning-quick arm with heavy recoil and some head whip, creating premium velocity that’s been up into the upper 90s. The fastball carries with life and can show subtle cut up in the zone or more tail when driven down, flashing as a legitimate plus pitch. His breaking ball—more power curve/slider hybrid at times in the mid-80s—misses bats with conviction and pairs naturally off the heater. The changeup is the developmental hinge; it shows promising separation and movement but will need continued refinement and consistent command for him to maximize a starter track. Behind the plate, he’s flashed the tools—decent pop times, big arm strength, loud exit traits (103 off the tee)—but the actions can get busy and the overall profile leans toward impact stuff on the mound. The competitiveness is obvious in both roles, yet the fastball/curve foundation and explosive arm speed give him early-round upside as a pitcher if the strike-throwing and third pitch take the next step. | |||||||||||
