Is he legit or another 3ish type pitcher?  I know he is a lefty but what is his stuff like and pitchability?

[SportsGuy]

Law ranked him #63

He certainly has the stuff and stature, but a so do a lot of guys.  Hell I would start him at AA and if he is doing well in the first half bring him up, why not?  But he has to be dominant at AA, not just okay.

No reason to start his service clock. He’s young. Let him learn and develop more.

But next year? All bets are off as of mid April.

Baltimore’s first-rounder in 2017 from a Georgia high school, Hall’s first pro season last year went as well as the team could have hoped for. The lefty pitched to a 2.10 ERA in the South Atlantic League, holding opponents to a paltry .198 average-against while posting encouraging peripherals. Hall isn’t the tallest, but his mix of three above-average pitches with polished control gives him the highest ceiling of any pitcher in the system. The fastball touches 96-to-97 mph and sits comfortably in the mid-90s, backed up by a sharp curve and developing changeup that got more use late in the season. Hall has the talent to rank first on this list as he gets closer to the big leagues, perhaps as soon as mid-season.

Starting at A+ Frederick.

I think it’s “IL” Hall now.

DL Hall was 95-97 mph with two strikeouts and a fun new slider that was 83-84 mph in his first inning. #Orioles

Results aren’t there but the reports on his stuff are encouraging.
