Ryan Butner is a 2006 right handed pitcher from Davie, FL with a tall lean build at 6-4, 155 lbs. He throws from a low 3/4's arm slot with a high leg kick and a very fast, loose arm. Butner's fastball is up to 90 mph and he gets very good running action from his low release point. Butner throws two types of breaking balls in the upper 70's. One is a sharp, big breaking curveball with a lot of depth to it. The other is a shorter, crisper pitch with more of a slider break. Both are quality pitches. Butner also threw an 81 mph change up that had good deception on it. Butner is a very fast worker on the mound who has four quality pitches and an idea of how to use them. His pitchability has taken huge strides in the last year and he was in complete command on the mound. Butner is never going to be a big man with his narrow frame but he should get stronger in the future. He's a high ceiling prospect who can pitch right now. Butner is also a good student and has committed to Tennessee.
PG Grade 9.5

Butner is a slender and very projectable 6-4 right handed pitcher from Florida. He has a long, loose arm action and a mid to low ¾’s release point that provides deception and is intimidating to right handed hitters. We’ve heard some scouts question Butner’s mechanics, others have no concerns. They work pretty well for us. Butner’s fastball was mostly 84-87 mph in Fort Myers and touched 90 once, we’ve seen him throw harder in the past. He gets very good boring life on his fastball with his low release point and good extension out front. Butner’s slider is 73-74 mph and has tight spin and sharp biting action. He also threw a couple of hi 70’s change ups. Butner is a very good candidate to be a low to even mid 90’s pitcher when he adds some strength and right handers are going to enjoy hitting against him even less.
PG Grade 10.0
