    Abram is a huge, 6-foot-8, 240-pound righthander who has all of the physicality needed in the pro game and then some. Playing with Team Canada's junior national team, Abram has developed a track record of getting professional hitters out over the past two years, though he has a below-average fastball in the 86-89 mph range. He touches 92 mph here and there, but his success comes because he can really pitch and he commands a three-offering repertoire well. He throws a solid curveball for strikes and also mixes in a changeup. He'll flash a occasional slider, but his curveball is his go-to breaking ball at the moment. He has a simple and repeatable delivery and used his entire arsenal to throw five, no-hit innings against the Braves' instructional team last fall. An Oklahoma commit, Abram could step onto campus and make an impact right away if a pro team doesn't draft and sign him.
