2025 MLB Draft Top 250 Rankings

Welcome to MLB Draft Week! My top 250 debuts here at Prospects1500 with my final 650 big board going live on draft morning at Three Quarter Slot. I will break down some of the top players in each grouping, but you can find full report for most of these players here.

Two years ago we had five players who would go 1-1 in most drafts, while last year we had a grouping of 1-1 worthy candidates but no sure fire superstar in the eyes of many. This year may be as deep a class as we have had in a while in terms of future big league talent, but the top talent is a step or two below recent years. While the White Sox and Athletics were ineligible for the top picks and slid to 10 and 11 respectively, they could well get the best player in the draft when we look back at it in a few years. The big winners are going to be the teams with extra bonus pool money, like the Mariners, as they can save on their top pick and use those savings on an incredibly deep prep shortstop and left handed pitching crop.

1. Seth Hernandez, RHP, Corona (CA)
2. Kade Anderson, LHP, LSU
3. Ethan Holliday, SS, Stillwater (OK)
4. Aiva Arquette, SS, Oregon State
5. Jamie Arnold, LHP, Florida State

This is actually a quite convenient cutoff as these are the five that got a good amount of consideration for the number one spot. Ultimately, I settled on Hernandez given he is already up to triple digits with his fastball and a current plus changeup to go with two breaking balls with plus potential and command of them all. Arnold was the top college arm for much of the year, but Anderson‘s season was just too good and ultimately his stuff played better and is at the top. Holliday looks to match his brother Jackson Holliday as the number one overall pick, to beat Justin Upton and B.J. Upton as the highest picked brothers in the draft, going one and two respectively. Arquette has massive power and a large frame, but answered the questions about his ability to stick at short this year, although there are still some detractors on his hit tool.

6. Eli Willits, SS, Fort Cobb-Broxton (OK)
7. Billy Carlson, SS, Corona (CA)
8. Kyson Witherspoon, RHP, Oklahoma
9. Kayson Cunningham, SS, Johnson (TX)
10. JoJo Parker, SS, Purvis (MS)

Willits is committed to Oklahoma where his brother plays and his dad is an assistant coach, but he won’t make it to campus as he has a plus hit tool and wheels to go with a polished defensive profile at short and is a “dark horse” to go 1-1. The single best defensive player in the class is Carlson, while the best pure hit tool belongs to Cunningham. Witherspoon and Parker are a pair of twins that will likely be drafted, as Kyson will go well ahead of brother Malachi, and JoJo ahead of brother Jacob.

11. Liam Doyle, LHP, Tennessee
12. Steele Hall, SS, Hewitt Trussville (AL)
13. Xavier Neyens, 3B, Mount Vernon (WA)
14. Wehiwa Aloy, SS, Arkansas
15. Tyler Bremner, RHP, UC Santa Barbara

This is the grouping of massive upside but some genuine question marks. Doyle was the most dominant pitcher in college baseball at times this year, but his fiery personality, high effort delivery, and inconsistent command does leave some questions about how sure a thing he is and gives him a small amount of reliever risk. Hall did not leave many questions with his spring, as he is incredibly athletic and can really hit, but he reclassified from the 2026 class to 2025 in the fall and missed the entire showcase season, which means he did not get as much time against elite arms as most other in the class. In terms of pure raw power, there may not be anyone with as much as Neyens, but he is too passive at the plate and is a fringy defender at third. Speaking of Fringy defenders with big power, Aloy did enough to make a case to at least start his pro career at short, but not sure he will stick there long term. Bremner was an early 1-1 candidate for me coming into the year, but his stuff wasn’t as sharp throughout the season as it was over the summer, so he has slid down many boards.

16. Ike Irish, C/OF, Auburn
17. Kruz Schoolcraft, LHP, Sunset (OR)
18. Josh Hammond, SS/RHP, Wesleyan Christian Academy (NC)
19. Daniel Pierce, SS, Mill Creek (GA)
20. Brendan Summerhill, OF, Arizona

The highest ranked “catcher” on the board is Irish, although injury and the play of Chase Fralick meant he got just 12 games behind the plate this year. He is all about the bat, as he could end up with plus hit and power, and the arm is more than enough to make up for some footwork issues behind the dish, or allow him to fit well in right. Schoolcraft is a massive prep lefty with a big fastball, nasty slider, and quality change with enough talent to be drafted as a power hitting first baseman, but he is the top prep lefty on the board instead for me. In February, Hammond was looked at as a pure pitching prospect, but he moved to the bullpen to focus on his hitting and absolutely mashed. On top of that, he proved he has an outside shot to stick at short.

21. Marek Houston, SS, Wake Forest
22. Gavin Fien, SS, Great Oak (CA)
23. Caden Bodine, C, Coastal Carolina
24. Gavin Kilen, IF, Tennessee
25. Jace LaViolette, OF, Texas A&M

The best college defender is Houston, while the best college hit tool and best college defensive catcher is the same person in Bodine. Fien has one of the more unorthodox swings in the class, but all he has done is performed and kept climbing boards from the start of last summer all the way through the process. Kilen transferred to Tennessee this year where he really tapped into his potential that he didn’t full see while at Louisville, while LaViolette was once a 1-1 favorite, his season did not go as planned, individually or team, and has tumbled, but the pure talent is still immense.

26. Luke Stevenson, C, North Carolina
27. Gage Wood, RHP, Arkansas
28. Slater de Brun, OF, Summit (OR)
29. Devin Taylor, OF, Indiana
30. Sean Gamble, 2B/OF, IMG Academy (FL)

There are going to be plenty who will call Stevenson the best sure fire catcher in the draft. I have him second, but the draft eligible sophomore is an excellent defender with plenty of pop, there are just questions with the hit tool. You may have seen some highlights of Wood, as he is the one who threw the 19 strikeout no-hitter in the College World Series, and has one of the best fastballs in the class. Gamble has one big question in his game, and that is what position he will play, as he has seen time throughout the outfield and both middle infield spots, but he is a guy who projects to be average to better with all five tools.

31. Ethan Conrad, OF, Wake Forest
32. Cam Cannarella, OF, Clemson
33. Andrew Fischer, 1B, Tennessee
34. Jack Bauer, LHP, Lincoln-Way East (IL)
35. Zach Root, LHP, Arkansas

Cannarella was a star from the moment he set foot on campus with Clemson, but an injury plagued 2024 that carried over into the 2025 season in terms of power production has him falling down boards. He did show some of the power coming back down the stretch, and could well be the best defensive outfielder in the class. Bauer is a prep lefty the likes of which we have never seen, as he has been up to 102 with his fastball and, somehow, still has plenty of projection left in his frame. Meanwhile, Root is the opposite of that, not that he does not have a big fastball, but he is a guy with some effort in the delivery and tends to pitch backwards as much as anyone in the class.

36. Riley Quick, RHP, Alabama
37. Patrick Forbes, RHP, Louisville
38. Alex Lodise, SS, Florida State
39. Cameron Appenzeller, LHP, Glenwood (IL)
40. Tate Southisene, SS/OF, Basic (NV)

Lodise transferred in to Florida State and went on to win the Dick Howser Trophy, named after the former Seminole player, and answered many questions about his ability to stick at short, although he is far from a lock to stick there. Many have Appenzeller as the top prep lefty in the class, but he is too much projection to be that guy for me. That said, if he reaches his potential, he could be a legit number two starter in the big leagues. The Southisene family is essentially royalty at Basic at this point, ant Tate may be the best of the numerous brothers that have/will go through that program.

41. Anthony Eyanson, RHP, LSU
42. Jaden Fauske, C/OF, Nazareth Academy (IL)
43. Angel Cervantes, RHP, Warren (CA)
44. Ethan Petry, OF/1B, South Carolina
45. Nicky Becker, SS, Don Bosco Prep (NJ)

Eyanson may have as high a floor as any in the class, although he does lack the massive ceiling. That said, I would not at all be surprised to see his name as the first one from this class to make his big league debut. Cervantes could well have the best changeup of any pitcher coming out of the prep ranks, and a fastball that plays well above the velo would suggest thanks to it’s carry through the zone. Had we held the 2025 draft after the 2023 college baseball season, Petry likely would have gone 1-1 as he has ridiculous raw power, but he has big defensive questions and the hit tool needs work, although he has a good feel for the zone.

46. Quentin Young, 3B, Oaks Christian (CA)
47. Mason Neville, OF, Oregon
48. JB Middleton, RHP, Southern Miss
49. AJ Russell, RHP, Tennessee
50. Dean Curley, SS/3B, Tennessee

Young has two uncles who played in the big leagues, Dmitri and Delmon, and has some of the loudest tools in the class. He has a case for one of the top infield arms in the class and bonafide light tower power. While his future is likely at third or even right field, don’t be shocked to see a team allow the 6’6″ slugger get some reps at short early in his pro career. Southern Miss has a quality arm in every draft it seems, and Middleton is the latest, with a combination of stuff and polish, the fastball flirts with triple digits from an incredibly low slot, but commands all his offerings. The changeup does need to make massive strides if he is to stick in a rotation though. Russell and Curley are two more in what will likely be a massive draft for Tennessee, as Russell has an argument to have the best fastball in the class, and Curley likely would have been a first round lock if not for the real defensive struggles down the stretch.

51. Briggs McKenzie, LHP, Corinth Holders (NC)
52. Marcus Phillips, RHP, Tennessee
53. Aaron Watson, RHP, Trinity Christian Academy (FL)
54. Max Belyeu, OF, Texas
55. Brady Ebel, SS, Corona (CA)
56. Joseph Dzierwa, LHP, Michigan State
57. Charles Davalan, OF/2B, Arkansas
58. Brandon Compton, OF, Arizona State
59. Coy James, SS, Davie (NC)
60. Ryan Mitchell, SS, Houston (TN)

Belyeu suffered an injury in the middle of a season that could have seen him getting round one consideration, but the talent overall is there and should be a lock for day one. Ebel, son of Dino, the third player from Corona on the list and one of four I expect to hear drafted this year, is a quality infielder who has had to play off position because of Billy Carlson. Dzierwa was one of the better pitchers in an underrated Big Ten, while Compton has massive tools, but consistency and defensive chops have prevented him from being a sure fire first round pick.

61. Kyle Lodise, SS, Georgia Tech
62. Dax Kilby, SS, Newnan (GA)
63. Kane Kepley, OF, North Carolina
64. Matthew Fisher, RHP, Evansville Memorial (IN)
65. Landon Harmon, RHP, East Union Attendance Center (MS)
66. Johnny Slawinski, LHP, Johnson City (TX)
67. Jordan Yost, SS, Sickles (FL)
68. Daniel Dickinson, 2B, LSU
69. Alec Blair, OF, De La Salle (CA)
70. JD Thompson, LHP, Vanderbilt

Another Lodise, Kyle is the cousin of Alex and is the more polished defender with a pretty good change to stick at short, although he lacks the power at the plate. Kepley got on base via the HBP (27) than he was set down via strikeout (22) this year. To go with that he was 45-49 stealing bags and plays plus defense, making him an easy center fielder and table setter inthe lineup. Slawinski is a pitcher who is a must draft and sign this year, as his future is big and I see a ton of improvement to come and could be a top half of the first round pick if he makes it to campus. Dickinson is one of the few pure 2B prospects who is a bonafide draft prospect, but he has a hit tool that flirts with plus although the impact is limited due to well below average power.

71. Lucas Franco, SS/3B, Cinco Ranch (TX)
72. Henry Ford, 1B/OF, Virginia
73. Brayden Jaksa, C, Irvington (CA)
74. Dean Moss, OF, IMG Academy (FL)
75. Korbyn Dickerson, OF, Indiana
76. Brock Sell, OF, Tokay (CA)
77. Uli Fernsler, LHP, Novi (MI)
78. Mason Pike, RHP, Puyallup (WA)
79. Cade Obermueller, LHP, Iowa
80. Henry Godbout, 2B/3B, Virginia

After being selected in the final round of the 2022 MLB Draft, Dickerson was redshirted in 2023 and only stepped to the plate 22 times in 2024 for Louisville. He transferred to Indiana for 2025 where he played an excellent center field for one of the best outfield trios in the country and flashed plenty of pop as well. Sell is a name to watch as he could well be the first name on this list to go undrafted, not because of talent, he has a ton of it, but because he is a Stanford commit and could be a tough signing. Fernsler‘s stuff isn’t loud, but it all plays up with three pitches that should be at least average and quality command to go with an arm slot that makes it tough to pick up the ball and a ton of projection left. Pike was once a highly regarded shortstop prospect, but the arm on the mound is just too good, although there is a ton of reliever risk. If he does proceed as a reliever it will be as a high leverage one.

81. Chase Shores, RHP, LSU
82. Gavin Turley, OF, Oregon State
83. Mitch Voit, 2B, Michigan
84. Nick Dumesnil, OF, Cal Baptist
85. Taitn Gray, OF, Dallas Center Grimes (IA)
86. James Ellwanger, RHP, Dallas Baptist
87. Colin Yeaman, SS, UC Irvine
88. Josh Owens, SS/OF, Providence (TN)
89. James Quinn-Irons, OF, George Mason
90. Easton Carmichael, C, Oklahoma

Any interest in a 6’8″ flamethrower who has been up to 101? Then look no further than Shores. Really like triple digit fastballs? I have Ellwanger in this grouping as well. The problem with both is the ability to reel in the stuff enough to command it, but the upside is huge if the can find that command. Yeaman was a pop up prospect after two years of junior college he burst onto the scene for UC Irvine and mashed all year. Quinn-Irons made some highlight reel catches in center and launched his share of moon shots as well. There is some swing and miss concerns, but there are a ton of tools to like here.

91. Luke Hill, SS, Ole Miss
92. Max Williams, OF, Florida State
93. Nolan Schubart, OF, Oklahoma State
94. Miguel Sime, RHP, Poly Prep (NY)
95. Aiden Stillman, LHP, Trinity Prep (FL)
96. Talon Haley, LHP, Lewisburg (MS)
97. Cooper Flemming, SS/RHP, Aliso Niguel (CA)
98. River Hamilton, RHP, Sam Barlow (OR)
99. RJ Austin, OF, Vanderbilt
100. Griffin Hugus, RHP, Miami

Schubart has launched some of the more majestic home runs in his time in Stillwater, but the swing and miss is real and the defense leaves a ton to be desired. In reality, his future is probably as a DH, but that power tool is just too big to ignore. Sime came into the year as a power fastball first and only guy, but he started to show the ability to spin a breaking ball much better during the season, enough it has received grades bordering on plus. That said, he has some real command issues and is still just a two pitch guy, so it is hard to project him as anything but a power reliever. Haley has one of the easiest to root for stories in the draft, undergoing TJ before high school, then diagnosed with non-Hodgkins lymphoma during his recovery from that surgery. Not long after being declared cancer free, he tore his UCL again and got an internal brace. The stuff is big, up to 97 with his fastball but there are going to be real questions about his longevity given the multiple elbow surgeries.

101. Jayden Stroman, RHP/SS, Patchogue-Medford (NY)
102. Nate Snead, RHP, Tennessee
103. Michael Lombardi, RHP, Tulane
104. Dean Livingston, RHP, Hebron Christian Academy (GA)
105. Blaine Bullard, OF, Klein Cain (TX)
106. Ben Jacobs, LHP, Arizona State
107. Jared Jones, 1B, LSU
108. Murf Gray, 3B, Fresno State< 109. Justin Lamkin, LHP, Texas A&M
110. Ryan Wideman, OF, Western Kentucky
111. Colby Shelton, SS, Florida
112. Jared Spencer, LHP, Texas
113. Trent Grindlinger, C, Huntington Beach (CA)
114. Jacob Parker, OF, Purvis (MS)
115. Cam Leiter, RHP, Florida State
116. Jake Cook, OF, Southern Miss
117. Tanner Franklin, RHP, Tennessee
118. Mason Morris, RHP, Ole Miss
119. Kaleb Wing, RHP, Scotts Valley (CA)
120. William Patrick, OF, St. Frederick (LA)
121. Gustavo Melendez, SS/2B, Colegio La Merced (PR)
122. Myles Upchurch, RHP, St. Albans (VA)
123. Omar Serna, C, Lutheran South (TX)
124. Josiah Hartshorn, OF, Orange Lutheran (CA)
125. CJ Gray, RHP, A.L. Brown (NC)

As we get into the big chunks of the list, you will recognize some last names here, as Stroman is in fact the younger brother of Marcus Stroman, and Leiter is from that famous Leiter family. There is also a school-position combo that stands out, as Grindlinger comes from Huntington Beach, where they have a long track record of sending catchers to pro ball. Gray is a guy with big power, at the plate and in the field with a plus arm, but there have been some questions about his defense, although I firmly believe he will be at least an average defender at third. Wideman is another player from a non power conference I really like in this group, as he has double plus wheels and oozes tools. On the bases and in the outfield he shines, but he does need do a better job of zone recognition as he chases far too often. I don’t love comps, but sometimes they fit too well to ignore, and Serna is an easy comp to Gary Sanchez as he has a familiar leg kick stride and swing and cannon of an arm, but I think he can be a better defender behind the dish with a tick less power at the plate.

126. Matt Scott, RHP, Stanford
127. Malachi Witherspoon, RHP, Oklahoma
128. Matt Barr, RHP, Niagara CC
129. Cameron Millar, RHP, Alhambra (CA)
130. Michael Oliveto, C/OF, Hauppauge (NY)
131. Aaron Walton, OF, Arizona
132. Zach Strickland, RHP, Maranatha (CA)
133. Sam Horn, RHP, Missouri
134. Nico Partida, RHP/SS, Pearland (TX)
135. Pico Kohn, LHP, Mississippi State
136. Robert X Mitchell, LHP, Prestonwood Christian (TX)
137. Landon Hodge, C/2B, Crespi Carmelite (CA)
138. Landon Schaefer, SS, Fayetteville (AR)
139. Gabe Davis, RHP, Oklahoma State
140. Jack Gurevitch, 1B/3B, San Diego
141. Tre Phelps, 3B/OF, Georgia
142. Brian Curley, RHP, Georgia
143. Aidan West, SS, Long Reach (MD)
144. Ethan Moore, SS, Oak Park-River Forest (IL)
145. Trent Caraway, 3B, Oregon State
146. Marcos Paz, RHP, Hebron (TX)
147. Brock Ketelsen, OF/LHP, Valley Christian (CA)
148. Tim Piasentin, 3B, Foothills Composite (AL)
149. Shane Sdao, LHP, Texas A&M
150. Nelson Keljo, LHP, Oregon State

Here we find the second Witherspoon brother, with Malachi sitting this far down as his future is almost certainly in the bullpen, although he does have one of the better sliders in the class. Barr was largely an unknown coming into the year but absolutely shoved for Niagara with a fastball up to 97, the ability to really spin two breaking balls, and as much projection in the frame as anyone in the class. If not for a strong desire to play for Oregon State, Caraway could well have heard his name called late on day one of the 2023 draft but made it to campus instead. He lost much of his freshman season to injury and did not put up the numbers he was hoping for in his draft eligible sophomore season in 2025, but the talent is there and he should get enough draft love to be signed this year. What a difference this last year could have made if Paz didn’t get hurt early last summer, undergoing Tommy John and missing almost all of the showcase circuit and all of the 2025 season. He has been able to throw bullpens for teams down the stretch but, had he been healthy, he could well have been ranked 14 not 146.

151. Ty Peeples, OF, Franklin County (GA)
152. Micah Bucknam, RHP, Dallas Baptist
153. Cooper Underwood, LHP, Allatoona (GA)
154. JT Quinn, RHP, Georgia
155. Sean Youngerman, RHP, Oklahoma State
156. Drew Faurot, 2B/SS, Florida State
157. Brett Crossland, RHP, Corona del Sol (AZ)
158. Noah Yoder, RHP, Atlee (VA)
159. Landon Beidelschies, LHP, Arkansas
160. Joshua Jannicelli, RHP, Cardinal Newman (CA)
161. Antonio Jimenez, SS, UCF
162. Ethin Bingaman, 2B/RHP, Corona (CA)
163. Frank Cairone, LHP, Delsea Regional (NJ)
164. John Stuetzer, OF, Pope (GA)
165. Brent Iredale, 3B, Arkansas
166. Cade Crossland, LHP, Oklahoma
167. Jason Reitz, RHP, Oregon
168. Jack Lafflam, RHP, Brophy College Prep (AZ)
169. Ben Abeldt, LHP, TCU
170. Jacob Morrison, RHP, Coastal Carolina
171. Will Hynes, RHP, Lorne Park (CAN)
172. Ryan Prager, LHP, Texas A&M
173. Anthony Pack, OF, Millikan (CA)
174. Angel Laya, OF, Eastlake (CA)
175. Cam Maldonado, OF, Northeastern

There are some really interesting high school arms here but I will only highlight a couple. Brett Crossland (one of two Crosslands in this grouping, not related) has a quality four pitch mix including a fastball-changeup combo that could develop into plus pitches, while Yoder has a long frame with plenty of stuff, he just really needs to reel in the command and stay on top of his breaking ball better. Iredale is as well travelled as anyone in this draft class, born in Sydney, Australis before moving stateside to play at New Mexico Junior College, he transferred to Arkansas and faired well in the SEC. I am still not totally sold he can stick at third, but he has improved enough to at least begin his career at the hot corner. Pack is a guy I warned people heading into this cycle would be the victim of scout fatigue as he seemed to be at every showcase event possible the past few years, and I got caught up in it too. He is a solid center fielder with good wheels and an advanced approach, although there is little power either current or in his projection. Just a bit ago I mentioned I don’t love comps, so why not put in another one. This one is purely batting stance related, as it is pretty much impossible to see Maldonado at the plate and not think of Giancarlo Stanton’s stance. That is where the comp ends, as Maldonado does have solid power, it is his athleticism that stands out with a plus run tool and a guy who could very well stick in center.

176. Lorenzo Meola, SS, Stetson
177. Mason White, SS, Arizona
178. Cody Bowker, RHP, Vanderbilt
179. Carson Brumbaugh, SS, Edmond Santa Fe (OK)

181. Grant Jay, C, Dallas Baptist
182. John Paone, RHP, Lawrence Academy (MA)
183. Ethan Grim, RHP, Governor Mifflin (PA)
184. Tanner Thach, 1B, UNC Wilmington

194. Charlie Willcox, RHP, South Walton (FL)
195. Riley Kelly, RHP, UC Irvine
196. Chris Arroyo, 1B/LHP, Virginia
197. Zane Adams, LHP, Alabama
198. Reid Worley, RHP, Cherokee (GA)
199. Ethan Frey, OF, LSU
200. Ryan Weingartner, SS, Penn State

There is a pair of college catchers in this grouping that flip flopped all season as to who was top of that next grouping of college catchers after the elites who will likely go in the first round. Ultimately Jay just does beat out Bryan as he has a strong arm and plenty of pop at the plate while running quite well for a catcher. Bryan is more of your traditional catcher athletically, but he has a better shot to stick behind the dish and become a solid defender, although his impact with the bat is a notch lower. Martinez was a lock to be the top player from UC Irvine before Yeaman’s rise this season, but don’t sleep on him. He does not have the big power from a typical first baseman, and he is a fringy at best defender even at that position, but there are times he looks to have a potential plus hit tool. Willcox and Worley are a pair of quality prep arms that will be draft eligible sophomores if they make it to campus, so I expect them both to be targets of those teams that are able to save money with their top picks.

224. Conor Essenburg, LHP/1B, Lincoln-Way West (IL)
225. Ben Moore, LHP, Old Dominion

A couple of glue guys from a Texas team that was the number two national seed this season, as Flores and Galvan are both in this group. Flores has two big questions, those being the hit tool and the range for short, but the glove itself and the plus arm are easy left side of the infield tools, and there is some genuine pop in the bat. Galvan was not a big draft prospect coming into the year, but he seemed to be at the heart of every rally for the horns and managed that staff really well. The brother of the number 14 overall draft pick in 2023 and current catcher for the Chicago White Sox, Kyle Teel, Aiden was a quality two way guy for Virginia. As a pro though he should be purely a position player where he has a shot to stick in center but enough arm for right. He lacks much in the power department, but has a solid hit tool. One guy who could well be announced as a two way guy is Hedges who projects as a reliever on the mound, but most likely will be a third baseman where he could be one of the better defenders at that position in this class.

Wrapping up the top 250 we have Foutch, a big armed reliever in the SEC followed immediately by Episcope, an undersized Ivy Leaguer. Meanwhile, Agbayani makes the list, son of former Mets outfielder Benny Agbayani. Bruin will start his career in the infield, although many scouts believe his future is in the outfield, but the thing few question is the hit tool. Donay has as wide a stance at the plate as you will find, but that doesn’t prevent him from really tapping into some power. He has seen plenty of time behind the dish for the Gators, but he would be a below average defender at best as a pro and will likely be in the outfield or first base. Elon tends to send a quality arm into the draft every few years, and this year it is Mitrovich. He has a fastball into the mid-90s, a quality gyro slider, and a tumbling changeup that has received plus grades.
