Zach Hess was a top 50 high school player and has one of the nastiest sliders coming out of high school this year and will sit 93-94 mph. There is a chance Dunn can't keep him out of a Sunday spot


Adam, you and MOT I think are the most knowledgable on here regarding lsu baseball and the talent on the team so if you had to compare Hess to a recent signee, who would he compare to? So incoming Nola, Gausman, etc?

Thanks

He reminds me Gausman to an extent coming out of highschool. Long lanky frame with a high leg kick and downward movement. Hess has more of a 3/4 slot arm angle where Gausman would come more over the top.

As a senior in highschool Gausman was sitting 96-97mph with a great changeup while Hess is usually 93-94mph at the moment with a better slider.

I think Hess will be an extremely great college arm, out of the class he's the most ready. He has a great head on his shoulders and comes from a very knowledgeable baseball background.
