Today we feature Trystan Magnuson in our photo and video of the day.  Magnuson has been pitching very well for New Hampshire this season, he has a 1.40 ERA in 12 games.  Magnuson has walked just two batters over 19.1 innings and his WHIP is under 1.



Magnuson, as you probably know is tall, 6'8".  With Tim Collins and Danny Farquhar, two of his bullpen mates, both under 6', Magnuson's height is accentuated in pictures with them.  The picture below shows Magnuson alongside Farquhar.

 

When the POTD for Tim Collins was posted it included a picture of Collins beside Magnuson.  If you want to see that picture, click here.

 

Magnuson was born in Canada although his family moved to Louisville during his younger years.  The photo below shows Magnuson in mid-delivery.

 

Finally, I uploaded video of Magnuson here.

Thanks for the pictures and video.

His delivery looks funky/choppy..anybody else agree? I can't put my finger on exactly what it is though..

I think he looks stiff in his delivery.  He is a big guy and his upper body doesn't move and his leg lift is small so his delivery would probably be considered compact for someone so big.  As a reliever that is a good thing to limit runners trying to steal.
