An athletic two-way player, Neal has promise both as a pitcher and a position player. Neal has primarily been a position player, with his body control and hand-eye coordination evident on the mound and at the plate. He’s a fluid mover at shortstop with a plus arm that could tick up another grade. Neal can drive the ball with impact during BP, with up-and-down game performance on the travel circuit. On the mound, Neal has a smooth, athletic operation as a pitcher and a fastball that has touched 94 mph from a crossfire delivery. With his arm speed and lots of space left to fill out his lean 6-foot-3 frame, there should be another velocity jump coming. He has feel for a slider, a pitch that should benefit from extra power that should come as he gets stronger.
