Haynes picked up some helium with a solid outing in Jupiter at the WWBA World Championships, where his fastball reached 93 mph. He has a wiry body with room for growth, and some scouts saw his fastball reach 94 at times this spring. Haynes will need to refine his breaking ball, which currently operates in the low 70s. He has a high-effort delivery that could be toned down. Haynes is committed to Walters State CC (Tenn.), but could be signable as a boom-or-bust type.
