Aaron Nola
Pitching scouting report · 80Grade
Scouting summary
At age 32 with seven-year contract extension through 2030, Nola faces projection dependent on recovery from injury and mechanical disruption. If able to restore command execution and mechanical consistency, realistic path exists to 3.50-3.80 ERA performance level as number 2 starter when weather warming increases fastball velocity. If command deterioration persists or represents age-related decline, performance could stabilize in 4.00-4.50 ERA range still functional as rotation contributor. Critical factor will be whether first-pitch strike percentage can return toward 55 percent career average and whether ankle injury has created permanent mechanical compromise. Historically strong track record after April and demonstrated grinding approach suggest potential for recovery, but severity of 2025 start creates uncertainty.
