| Summary: Driffill has begun to generate real attention thanks to a fastball that continues to trend upward. The pitch has climbed into the mid-90s and recently popped 98, showing late life that plays well through the zone. The delivery is athletic and relatively clean, allowing the arm speed to show without excessive effort. With a physical frame and room to add strength, there’s clear projection remaining in the velocity profile. The breaking ball sits in the low-to-mid 70s and flashes depth when he stays on top of it, though the shape can vary outing to outing. A sweeping variant has also shown sharper bite at times, hinting at a future swing-and-miss secondary if the consistency improves. The feel for spin is trending in the right direction, and the overall arsenal is beginning to take shape behind the fastball. The appeal here is the combination of arm strength, athletic movement, and developmental trajectory. As the breaking ball tightens and the strike-throwing continues to stabilize, the ingredients are present for a power starter profile with continued upward momentum. | |||||||||||
