Steven Zobac

Pitching scouting report · 80Grade

Scouting summary

Zobac projects as a fringe rotation arm with a realistic fallback to a multi-inning relief role if the command and durability questions linger. The appeal is a two-pitch foundation with enough fastball life and slider bite to miss bats, but the recent statistical dip and knee-related interruption push the projection down a notch from a stable mid-rotation type. If the changeup holds its own and the lower half stays consistent, he can still get to a back-end starter outcome; if not, the fastball/slider combo should let him work in shorter stints. The ceiling is limited by average command rather than stuff alone, but the floor is helped by a playable strike-throwing base and a starter’s build.

Projected MLB role: up-down #5 starter
