Boston Bateman - Prospect Profile

Baseball America - July 1st: "Bateman throws a trio of secondary pitches, including an upper-70s high-spin curveball, a harder slider variant in the low 80s and a mid-80s changeup. His curveball is his best pitch, with spin rates up in the 2,900 rpm range with snapping, two-plane bite and plenty of depth."

MLB.com - July 1st: "Bateman’s size and his makeup could be separators as the spring unfolds, though his current two-pitch mix is nothing to sneeze at. He’s shown he can touch 97 mph with his fastball and was sitting around 92 mph over the course of his summer showcase tour."

Joe Doyle - Future Star Series - March 18th: "Bateman touches 96 now, sitting in the low 90s with a big, banger breaking ball that comes off the heater late featuring depth. Bateman gets plenty of whiffs on curveballs in the dirt."
