RHP Nick Jukovich (Glenbrook North) had one of the louder ‘pens on the day and will look to be a key piece for North this coming spring. Listed at 6-foot-3, 210-pounds, Jukovich has a projectable build that still has a lot of filling out left in the coming years. The right-hander favors the third base side of the rubber, gathering his balance over the rubber with a hip tilt and back hip load, he strides slightly across his body creating cross-fire deception, especially to righties, athletic lower-half through release with a leg swing finish. His arm plays long out of the glove before transitioning into a high ¾ slot. His fastball cruised in the 84-86 mph range (T2445 RPM), playing with carry and downhill leverage through the zone, slight cutting action at times. He showed a knack to spin his breaking ball, playing around 69-71 mph with over 2300 RPM, 11/5 shape with some sharp action, can land it for strikes and to put hitters away. His final offering was a changeup in the 78-79 mph range, playing with running action and some feel to his glove-side. Upside arm with his best years still ahead of him.
