I've only seen Hultzen from behind-the-plate so that was interesting to watch.
 
It does confirm that his changeup is plus, but not a Lincecum/Santana/Hamels type offering. His fastball is straight, but ver deceptive. It looks faster than the 89-92 he was throwing in the video. It makes you understand why he gets such dominant results when hes sitting 90-95mph.
 
We're betting on his command+pitchability to translate directly to the MLB and/or on his velocity sitting at 92-93. If hes the real deal, he will be up VERY quickly and destroy the minors in short order like Jered Weaver did.
