2022 Sunshine Southeast Showcase
Ryland Byrd is a 2024 RHP/C with a 6-0 180 lb. frame from Fort Worth, TX who attends All Saints Episcopal. Medium athletic build. Belt high leg lift start on the mound, has a long and smooth arm action in back and a high 3/4's release slot out front, gets into his lower half well working down the mound, medium effort on release. Fastball worked up to 82 mph with good arm side run at times. Change up was a solid pitch for him with nice diving action and the ability to throw it aggressively to same side hitters. Curveball was a very good pitch when he was able to land it, had full arm speed at release and very hard and tight spin with 11/5 shape. Improving his breaking ball command will be key to his development. 7.40 runner in the sixty. Very good student.
