High 3/4; plus-plus arm speed; full extension. Stretch delivery only; stands tall and slightly closed; hands at waist and hands break low at waist. Upbeat, but fairly low effort delivery; repeats well. Front shoulder tilt and deceptive front side with high glove hand. Very tall and athletic frame; XXL; great downward plane.

Heavy, sinking action and some tail; more arm side run when thrown high; misses bats up and down; throws with lots of natural downward plane and very difficult to elevate; double plus movement. Future average command; throws low to both sides of the plate; pounds bottom of the strike zone; can also elevate and generate swings and misses while climbing the ladder. |

Outstanding life and movement; spikes downward as it reaches the plate; appears to fall off a cliff. Same arm speed and look as fastball; starts off throwing at bottom of zone; induces ugly swings and misses; very effective chase; major league strikeout pitch. |

60; Closer. Light is a huge power reliever with two future 70 pitches. He misses bats up and down in the zone. His height and the plane of his FB keeps the ball on the ground and in the park. With double plus stuff and average command, Light profiles as a relief ace who can handle the 9th inning for a playoff team.
