Analysis:

Sean Matson was the Cape Cod League Reliever of the Year in 2023. He's a former two-way player focusing on pitching the last two years. On the mound, Matson utilizes an over-the-top delivery. His three-pitch arsenal includes a 90-92 mph fastball that touches 94, a low-80s slider, and a mid-70s change-up that creates 15-20 mph of separation from his fastball. Matson started for Harvard for the last two years, as a professional, he projects better out of the bullpen.

Future Projections:

Fastball- 45

Slider- 50

Change-up- 50

Command- 45
