Scouting report
Savino's velocity climbed from the 89-93 range in 2018 games, up to the 91-94 range, touching 96 early in the summer of 2019. He also has an above-average, two-plane breaking ball in the upper-70s. His arm action is long and, overall, the delivery is atypical. He was ticketed for the middle of the first round when, in November of 2019, he announced plans to early enroll in Virginia in lieu of playing his high school senior year. This move has happened some recently, with current Diamondbacks RHP J.B. Bukauskas (Virginia HS, North Carolina) doing so en route to being a first round pick and 2021 first round center field prospect Jud Fabian going to Florida early from a Florida HS. Virginia also has a history of getting top prep arms on campus, with Mike Vasil the most recent example.
