About two weeks ago the Beavers landed talented Jesuit H.S. infielder Levi Jones. I noted that we needed to add his teammate J. Noble Meyer to the class. Today, we did that. Noble Meyer is a 6'3" 173 pound RHP that resides in West Linn but attends Jesuit High School. He's a sophomore playing summer ball for Pacific Northwest Baseball - Navy and 503 Baseball, and has been electric in some of his pitching appearances on the elite travel circuit in 2020. He had impressive appearances at the 2020 Future Games Showcase and at the MLK West Championship games in Phoenix, AZ.
At 15, he has good length and pitches with a long stride and smooth 3/4 delivery. There is more growth in the tank - he's going to grow bigger. He throws an 87 mph fastball, a 75 mph curve ball and a straight change at 70 mph. Good command of his pitches and locates all three with accuracy. Throwing Bullpens, he likes to experiment with various grips, pressure points and release angles. He is also tinkering with a slider and sinking splitter. A 2023 version Matt Moore who could baffle hitters with a multitude of pitches and speeds.
Meyers 60 time was 7.70 and exit velo was 89 mph. His secondary position is a Corner OF spot but he'll come to Oregon State as a pitcher with promise. He joins RHP Jim DeCremers, RHP Drew Talavs, LHP Paul Miller, with IF's Levi Jones and Zach Blair.
