School: Poly Prep Country Day HS, Brooklyn, N.Y. Committed: Duke. Age At Draft: 18.0
De Jong is a two-way player who is young for the class and shows promising building blocks for a young starting pitcher. He turns 18 in July of his draft year, has a strong frame and has already been up to 95 mph. He’s a good athlete with a sound delivery and a strong track record of throwing strikes with advanced pitchability for his age. De Jong mixes his stuff well, throwing a sharp 74-78 mph curveball that can spin above 2,600 rpm. He hasn’t used his changeup as much yet, but it has shown good sink and fade to become a bigger weapon with more reps. De Jong is a two-way player who packs a lot of strength and power into his swing from the right side, though it’s his upside on the mound that generates the most attention. -
