    Fishman's unorthodox delivery makes him extremely deceptive, as he coils his hips and shoulders and hides the ball well. His pitches also show late life, indicative of a high spin rate. Fishman's fastball typically operates at 88-89, but can tickle the low 90s. Fishman also throws a changeup and a curveball, but he also mixes in the occasional knuckleball, giving hitters anxiety in the batter's box. Over 66 innings, Fishman allowed three earned runs this spring, striking out 85 and walking 11. He is a strong student and could return to Union for his senior year if he does not get a strong offer.
