Kade Anderson
Pitching scouting report · 80Grade
Scouting summary
Anderson projects as a mid-rotation starter with a chance to settle in as a solid No. 3 or No. 4 if the command and four-pitch mix keep progressing. The fastball is good enough to set the table, and the two breaking balls plus changeup give him multiple paths to survive against righties and lefties. His ceiling is driven more by present feel for pitching than by rare velocity, so the floor remains tied to how well the command holds as the workload and quality of competition rise. If the fastball command backs up or the secondaries become more predictable, the outcome could slide toward a back-end starter; if everything stays crisp, he should be a durable big league rotation piece.
