Recommendation: Josh is developing into a strong physical athlete. Over the last 4 years playing as a two way player, predominately at short stop and more developing as a RHP. As a RHP, Josh throws a high % of strikes, can locate his fast ball with above average velocity and good angle. Has a good change up and a developing breaking ball. Has a proven ability to throw 75-85 pitches an outing and to be able to back that up on a weekly basis during the season.

Additional Information: His development as a pitcher has seen Josh identified and chosen in the Queensland Junior Elite Development program in addition to his selection in the Queensland State U/16 team recognising him in the top 20 players in the state for his age group.
