Draft Prospects
-
A touch and feel lefthander, Berkwich has a three-pitch mix with good feel for pitching and a competitive demeanor on the mound. A 6-foot, 190-pound lefthander committed to Vanderbilt, Berkwich has a fastball that has been up to 92 mph at its best, more frequently in the upper 80s. He has two secondaries in a 75-83 mph slurvy breaking ball that blends between a slider and a curveball and also throws a changeup in the 80-82 mph range. Berkwich doesn’t have the most fluid operation, with some recoil and effort through his delivery and without exceptionally loud present stuff it’s difficult to envision him not getting to campus in a five-round draft. With his advanced feel for pitching, though, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see him perform in the SEC.
