    Forret opened eyes early in the juco season when he matched up against Northwest Florida State JC and threw a seven-inning, one-hit shutout. The 6-foot-3, 190-pound lefty posted a 3.34 ERA over 13 starts and 86.1 innings, with 106 strikeouts and 18 walks. He throws a fastball in the low 90s that has been up to 94, and has a nice diving changeup in the low 80s as well as a solid slider in the same range. Following the spring season, Forret pitched with Falmouth in the Cape Cod League, and through his first two starts and six innings, he posted a 3.00 ERA with eight strikeouts and three walks. Forret has a projectable frame and could add more strength in the near future.
