Brett O'ConnorScouting Report – Brett O’Connor is a 6’2”, 175 lbs. right-handed pitcher with an over-the-top arm angle. He has a moderate leg kick in both the windup and stretch, along with a quick slide step that he commonly uses with runners on first and second.

Brett O’Connor throws both a four-seam and two-seam fastball, a twelve-six curveball with late break action, and a circle-changeup. His curveball has around a twelve mph delta from his fastball and his changeup has about a five mph delta.
