Schils is a physical 6-foot-2, 210-pounder who pitched 24 innings over two seasons at High Point. He transferred to Division II Florida Tech this spring to get playing time and opened the season as the team's closer before losing that role due to a bout of wildness that included 13 walks in his 10 innings. Despite a fastball that touched the mid-90s and that sits in the 91-92 mph range, he had just four strikeouts in the spring.
