Austine Havertine, FTB Phillies Scout DB9 (RHP, 2026)
Havertine showcased a smooth, efficient move down the mound with strong hip-shoulder separation and long extension, working downhill from a balanced, repeatable delivery. He pounded the zone with intent, using a FB/SL mix to keep hitters off balance. Across his outing, he produced a 46.3% overall whiff rate allowing just 2 hits while striking out 12 batters.
