Parker Thomas - RHP |

Coach Partin on Thomas: "Thomas is a long, strong 6'-5" and 225 lbs and passes any look test. He's middle to upper 80's right now with some arm-side life. He's got good angle to the plate. You can't help but think Thomas is going to keep gaining velocity. He's got feel for a change-up with running action and a big, over the top breakingball in the lower 70's. For a big guy he's athletic and quick to the plate. A summer with us and Thomas could turn in to one of the top pitching prospects in the Carolinas. Make-up is outstanding.
