Tanner Hall

Southern Miss

Despite his absolutely overwhelming numbers, Hall doesn't have prototypical overwhelming stuff. The fastball is heavy and it can get up to 92, but usually sits 89-91 with ease and a fluid delivery. It's a bowling ball heater that he commands brilliantly, some calling his feel for the pitch comfortably double-plus. He does, however, possess a slider that is a legitimate weapon. It's a low-80s sweeper that misses an immense amount of bats. His changeup doesn't have a ton of separation, but it does tumble hard at the plate and tunnels well off the fastball. Mix in Hall's natural deception and it's easy to see why teams like him. Hall might not have huge stuff or an ultra-physical frame, but his exceptional feel for the strikezone, starter traits and above average breaking ball should get him drafted nice and early.


1-20-23 - Top 25 Breakdown: No. 18 Southern Miss

https://d1baseball.com/season-preview/top-25-breakdown-no-18-southern-miss/

RHP Tanner Hall  - Star Power: The Golden Eagles have a very rare thing: a returning first-team All-American atop the rotation. Hall’s 146-14 K-BB mark last year was just silly, evidence of his freakish pitchability. Not only does he pound the zone, but he misses bats, and he does it with deception and movement more than velocity. But he’s certainly firm enough at 88-93 with sink, and he features one of the nation’s best changeups along with a quality slider. Hall will give Southern Miss the advantage every Friday night.


12-9-22 - 2022 Fall Report: Southern Miss

The centerpiece of the pitching staff will remain righthander Tanner Hall, of course. After going 9-3, 2.81 with a sparkling 146-14 K-BB mark in 109 innings last year, Hall spent the summer with Team USA, allowing just three hits over four shutout innings while striking out seven in his lone start in the Netherlands. Hall dealt with some shoulder soreness this fall, and Berry said his arm slot was noticeably lower, but he checked out fine and will spend the winter resting up for the spring. He’s the epitome of a proven commodity, with advanced command of an 87-93 mph sinker from a low three-quarters slot, a dastardly changeup that he manipulates extraordinarily well, and a useful slider at 78-82.

  Matthew Dallas LHP   2-6-23 - https://www.prospectslive.com/prospects-live/2022/1/15/2023-mlb-draft-prospects-fx4td-92ll4  - 86 LHP Matthew Dallas Briarcrest Academy While Dallas doesn't have gasoline velocity just yet, he's got one of the more buttery operation in high school ball with long limbs and fantastic body control. It's an over-the-top delivery with ride through the top of the zone and a 12-6 curve he can work into the lower-80s, though it more casually sits in the mid-70s. Dallas has a cutter and a changeup, though both lag behind his two primary weapons and scouts wonder if the latter will be tough to develop given the arm slot. Still, this is what a prototype looks like and the velocity is just around the corner.   10-19-22 - https://www.prospectslive.com/prospects-live/2022/1/15/2023-mlb-draft-prospects-fx4td?s=03  - 81 LHP Matthew Dallas Briarcrest Academy While Dallas doesn't have gasoline velocity just yet, he's got one of the more but...

UPDATED RESEARCH - 2023 Draft Prospect - RHP/OF - Nolan McLean

  Nolan McLean RHP/OF Oklahoma State   2-27-23 - Opening Weekend  - Nolan McLean , RHP/OF, Oklahoma State– The power hitting prospect has shifted from third base to the right field this season where his arm strength/raw power/defense tools profile well. During the Showdown he showed much more plate discipline with six walks against just two strikeouts compared to a 37/107 ratio in 242 at-bats last season. He also blasted a three-run home run to center field to put the Pokes back in the Vandy game, cutting the score to 11-8. It was a loud shot, one that needed earplugs from my seat. McLean is also a power prospect on the mound with a fastball up to 96 and a plus slider. He strong-armed Missouri for two strikeouts in the ninth inning to earn the save in State’s 5-3 win on opening night. I remain much more bullish on his abilities transferring into a big leaguer as a pitcher than hitter. He’s a third round prospect on the mound at this point.   2-19-23 - D1 - Week...
