Schultz has consistently dominated batters since being drafted in the 1st round of the 2022 draft. He utilizes his towering presence to his advantage as he is able to get a 5.5 ft vertical release point from a lefty sidearm delivery. His arm action has the added benefit of allowing him to get a ton of glove-side movement on his high-spin sweeper. His sweeper is exhibiting less depth this season, which has put a damper onto its stuff grades. His sinker possesses some strong characteristics, including sitting 94-95 MPH with 16” HB, mirroring his huge sweeper. However, it has struggled with missing bats and allowing a lot of damage. Schultz added in a cutter and changeup to round out his arsenal, but both offerings are not polished. The results through his pro career seasons speak for themselves, as he has consistently thrown strikes and tore through the lower minors with elite strikeout rates. His sinker may not become a dominant pitch in the Majors, but its physical characteristics portend well for further development. His prospects as a starter hinge on limiting damage against his fastball and further improving his changeup and cutter, with his sweeper raising his ceiling to lofty heights.",2025-06-03 23:31:35,

He stands at an ideal 6’5”, sits in the mid 90s, throws two plus-breaking balls, has a solid off-speed offering, and gets above-average extension. Meyer’s velocity has lagged since his draft, sitting at 93-95 MPH with tailing action, averaging both 15” of iVB and HB. His breaking balls are easily plus offerings. The slider sits at 83 MPH with a foot of glove-side movement with a wide range of vertical deviation. He also weaves in two-plane curveballs, which sit in the high 70s. His changeup averaged 16” of arm-side movement with good separation from his fastball. Meyer’s walk rate is scarily high, but his command should sharpen up as he develops and grows into his frame. A very encouraging aspect of his results is his ability to limit contact. He hit a home run speed bump in Hi-A, but struggles like that are expected from teenage pitchers. Meyer is a raw talent who checks most of the boxes for an ideal pitching prospect. The risk is present like any other teenager pitcher, but his physical traits quell concerns.",2025-05-09 22:47,

He was drafted as a two-way player out of Oklahoma State and did not start pitching full-time until mid-2024. Not even a year later he finds himself in AAA and knocking at the door of the majors. His ability to spin the ball is otherworldly as he can eclipse 3000 RPM on his breaking balls and generate a ton of movement at higher velocities. McLean's signature pitch is his mid 80s sweeper that can each up to 20"" of glove-side movement. It is one of the few potential 80 grade offerings in MiLB. McLean wields a pair of fastballs, a sinker and a 4-Seamer, that each sit in the mid 90s. His sinker is his primary offering against RHH where its immense arm-side movement and slight deviation from his arm slot plays well on the inner third. He swaps his sinker for a 4-Seamer against LHH where its extremely flat approach fools batters high in the zone. McLean also tosses a gyro cutter/slider that lives in the high 80s. It's slight cutting action makes it effective damage mitigating offering against RHH. He rounds out his incredibly deep arsenal with a mid 80s changeup that generates above average depth with negative iVB. He is exhibiting improved command this season and doing a formidable job at getting ahead of batters early. McLean's development and combination of stuff, athleticism, command, and versatility, all in an abridged timeframe, makes him one of the most exciting pitching prospect in MLB. There were concerns that he was more suited for a bullpen role, but he quelled most of those worries with his performance thus far.",2025-08-15 17:31:25,

His velocity is back to his early 2024 levels as he is sitting 93-95 MPH on his fastball. He generates a good amount of ride from a 5.6’ release height, which has led to plenty of whiffs. He has a great feel for his changeup, and thanks to its late break, it has been extremely effective at shutting down RHH. He wields two breaking balls: a mid-80s slider with moderate sweep and a two-plane curveball. His slider is a very effective put-away offering and grades out well, while the curveball may be limited to an early count pitch to steal strikes. Matthews has also flashed a sinker which should give him an early count weapon against LHH. It will be key for Mathews to retain his improved velocity over the course of a full season and maintain his pitch shapes. He has the frame to be a workhorse and the command to be a strong mid-rotation arm.",2025-06-03 23:33:06,

Before heading to the IL with a back injury in late April, Forret flashed a vastly improved fastball and more refined command, which sparked his hot start to the season. His fastball velocity still sits at 93-95 MPH, however it is generating over +2"" IVB this season, where from his 5.8 ft release propelled it into plus territory. His cross-bodied release leads to some funky angles, including a flat vertical approach which has devastated batters this season. He is also doing a much better job zoning the offering after he struggled throwing it for strikes last season. Forret supplements his strong fastball with a wide array of secondaries, including a sinker and a pair of both breaking balls and offspeed offerings. His sinker is exclusively used against RHH where it's nearly a foot and half of run jams batters on the inner thrid. The first breaking ball is a curveball with ""deathball"" shape, and the other being a slider with two-plane movement. Both pitches sit in the low 80s and have returned strong results this season. We are not done with Forret's arsenal because he throws two distinct offspeed offerings: a splitter and a changeup. He opts to use both offerings against LHH as a putaway pitch, where their movement differential from his fastball helps them play up. His splitter's low spin nature and ability to kill vertical movement flashes plus traits, while his changeup generates a lot more arm-side action. Forret wields an extremely deep arsenal headlined by a plus fastball. The command gains are the most important part of his development and make him one of the most intriguing arms in Baltimore's system.",2025-08-12 03:18:00,

Fitts tosses a cut-ride fastball, which flashes plus thanks to its mid 90s velocity and 15” iVB. It hasn’t had the greatest results, but he utilizes it all counts to register called strikes. His slider has tight glove-side movement. He has a great feel for the offering and uses it evenly against LHH and RHH. His sweeper is an extension of his slider with more glove-side movement, and he mostly uses it as ahead in counts against RHH. His primary off-speed pitch changed throughout the season with its current form being a kick changeup. The newer changeup flashes plus, but his feel for the pitch is less refined. Over the winter, Fitts added in a sinker and a curveball to provide him more options early in counts. Fitts’ smooth and repeatable delivery has helped him maintain high Strike% throughout his MLB career and makes me confident that he could be a back-end option for the Red Sox in 2025. His arsenal grades out well, and unlocking his kick changeup would bump his ceiling to mid-rotation starter.",2025-06-03 23:34:16,

Tolle does an excellent job utilizing his large 6'5"" frame to get down the mound which generates nearly 7.5' of extension. This large stride pairs well with his low 3/4 release to create a distinct look with a deceptively low release point. Tolle's fastball has garnered the most benefit from his release as its 93-95 MPH velocity looks like upper 90s heat. Additionally, its ~16"" iVB from his 5.7 ft release point leads to a flatter approach on his fastball as it whizzes through the zone. It is running a nearly 50% Whiff this season and Tolle does a strong job at locating it in the zone and getting ahead of batters early. Tolle has started throwing a sinker which hovers around 90 MPH and functions more like an offspeed pitch due to its movement differential from his fastball. Tolle's lone breaking ball is a mid 80s slider with 2-plane action with slight glove-side movement and ride. He rounds out his arsenal with an unpolished changeup that sits 86-88 MPH. It has returned underwhelming results thus far, but he has exhibited a good feel for the offering despite its low usage. Tolle's extreme extension and unique look from his lefty slot makes him an intriguing pitching prospect. He has the frame to eat up a lot of innings and is on the trajectory to being a consensus Top 100 Prospect later in 2025.",2025-08-15 17:33:25,
