Armando Marquez Jr is a 2020 RHP with a 6-0 150 lb. frame from Chula Vista, CA who attends Olympian HS. Recorded a 7.71 second 60-yard dash time. Long lanky frame with lots of room to fill out and project upon physically. Primary righthanded pitcher with a small side step into a high leg kick. Long and loose arm stroke and throws from a sidearm slot. Slightly flexed at the balance point and utilizes drop and drive mechanics on the back side. Very low effort and stays online well. Throws a 9/4 shaped slider that shows some sharpness when maintaining arm speed. Can locate either the fastball or breaking ball well and is a tough at-bat due to arm slot. Righthanded hitter with an upright narrow base to start. Lower hand set with a glide step into the stride. Upper half dominant swing with a longer swing path.
