How did Ricky Tiedemann and Jackson Joe look in their first starts in the Arizona fall

league?

Find out next on Fantasy Baseball today in five.

Welcome into FBTN5 on Saturday, October 7th.

I am Frank Samphold, joined by Chris V. Welsh, who is out there on the scene, out there

in Arizona, watching all these AFL games early on, and one of the biggest names out there

is Ricky Tiedemann, top pitching prospect with the Toronto Blue Jays, and he was picking

up the whiffs here in his first start, five innings, one run, seven strikeouts.

We did not have access to any stat cast in this game, but Welsh, your thoughts, first time

seeing Ricky Tiedemann?

Well, I can tell you that they have a gun there, and I was able to monitor the Velo, which

I will say, a little bit alarming.

That was the only thing that stood out even though from this performance, and we've got

some video up here, this was a Nathan Macharella at bat, where I think he got a strikeout,

but he was, he touched 97, and he usually sits in the mid 90s.

Tiedemann was sitting 92 in this game, like most of the time.

It was mostly 91, 92, which seemed odd, a couple rarities of a, of a at bat that, you know,

he could hit 93, 94, but it was a lot of 92s.

This is bat specifically was a very aggressive approach that Tiedemann had, where he just

pumped three straight fastballs and Nathan Macharella with the Padres, just was not able

to catch up to it, but the Velo's weren't quite there.

He was working high in the zone.
