    #1 His name is Josh Hader.
    #2 His fastball has been 92-94 mph this year.
    #3 He is barely 19 years old, 6'3" and 160 lbs, thus it is very likely he will add another few mph to his fastball.

    I was semi-serious when I said that.

    Wonder how hard he throws...

    Lot of reports out there that Hader sits 90-91 now and touches 93-94. Apparently he's had a nice velocity boost since high school. Throws from 3/4 arm slot, hides ball well, is athletic and projectable. It sounds like the determining factor for him will be how well he develops his slider/change, since his CB is decent but the other two are lacking. Really nice project.

    Harden could use his beard to scuff the ball, though, and get a mean spin on it.

    There's a Eurostep in his windup.
