Rafael Devers trade: What do opposing scouts think of new Red Sox additions?

The Red Sox' decision to trade Rafael Devers to the San Francisco Giants for four players caught just everybody off-guard in the industry. We spoke to scouts across the game who offered their take on the players the Red Sox are acquiring: Advertisement LHP Kyle Harrison: 'Throws four-seam fastball (94-97 mph) more than 60 percent of the time, helping to set-up slider, which he throws 85-89 of a third pitch against righthanded bats, with a lot of motion to repeat in his delivery, gets his pitch count up quickly due to inability to work ahead and pitch with deceptive delivery that he has not yet at times holding runners and basically finding a timed, repeatable delivery, working more like a reliever than a starting pitcher.' RHP Jordan Hicks: 'Hicks is a big-time thrower who has to rely on chase out of the fastball is used much more than the riding four-seamer (97-101 mph)...Slider has a three-quarter sweep and cutter is 86-02 is rarely used, as he lacks feel and repeat of his mistakes, injury to be injury line: he doesn't work ahead much and lacks feel and imagination to keep hitters off below 60 percent in strike-throwing with all his pitches.' OF James Tibbs III: 'Left fully-developed body, bat ahead of be left in LF, or perhaps a future move to first quick bat, high leg kick load, handles velocity from the belt and concept of the strike reminds some of Michael Conforto, with less arm and outfield speed, with a 4.29 time to first be a fast-mover through the system and could be at Triple A by the All-Star everyday outfielder with 25+ homer bat.' RHP Jose Bello: 'Six-foot-one, 178 pounds...a lean, projectable four-seam fastball that currently sits 93-96 mph, projected higher within two throws hard cutter at 90-92 mph along with conventional slider with hard sweep and ability to get hitters to chase at 86-88 a changeup that he doesn't use much, but needs to throw more since everything else is hard from a three-quarter arm quick long-arm action with more a thrower than a pitcher, effective vs. RHH with intent to attack strike zone with hit-and-miss of a bullpen project with upside at 20 years candidate for a split-finger pitch to aid against lefthanded hitters.'
