    View Draft Report
    Beck is probably the tallest pitcher in the 2022 draft class and if drafted he would become one of the tallest pitchers in pro baseball history. He stands 7-feet and is listed at 225 pounds. He throws a fastball in the 89-91 mph range, but the pitch plays up with deception and he has a surprisingly clean delivery considering his size. His breaking ball is a slurvy, loopy curveball in the mid 70s. Beck was a good performer this spring for Division II Saint Leo (Fla.), posting a 3.95 ERA over 13 starts and 68.1 innings, while striking out 105 batters (35.5 K%) and walking 31 (10.5 BB%). Beck has mostly been a starter throughout his college career but could have some interest as a unique look out of the bullpen in the pro game.
