Here is a look at new #SFGiants pitching prospect Tony Neubeck. The fastball does not overpower with velo, but has a decent shape. He works that up in the zone, and does a nice job of changing the sightlines with hitters by using his chanegup/slider lower in the zone.

Indiana lefty Tony Neubeck is signing with the Nationals after pitching to a 3.95 ERA with 75 strikeouts to 27 walks over 70.2 innings. Low-to-mid 90s fastball with carry plus a slider, changeup and cutter. Changeup tore through hitters this spring.
