Lleras participated in the International Week event in Sugar Land, Texas, and Program 15 CEO Jeremy Booth provided the following report on Lleras.
“Lleras has a big arm with feel to use his slider. FB has been up to 96 and secondary needs refinement. Strength without huge stature and projects as a reliever in professional baseball.”
