Roberti started the game at second and has an athletic frame with some projection left to it. He showed clean actions at second and a loose arm action with some arm strength. At the plate, hits from the right side and has a short swing with some batspeed. Came in to pitch in relief late in the game. Fastball sat 78-83, touched 84, with some run to it. Ticked down a bit in the stretch to 78-81. Change-up was 73 with good armspeed and fading action. Curveball had 11/5 break and was 65-68 with some armspeed and decent shape to it. Definitely and interesting two-way player to keep an eye on.
