Lucas Gordon
Pitching scouting report · 80Grade
Scouting summary
Gordon’s best path is to keep leveraging the changeup, deceptive left-handed angle, and strike-throwing history in a multi-inning role. A fastball that mostly sits in the upper 80s to low 90s leaves little margin for missed locations, and his 2026 walk and home-run totals expose that vulnerability at Double-A. If he restores more consistent control and the changeup remains a swing-and-miss pitch, he can compete for up-and-down starts or long relief; a stable rotation role requires better command and a more dependable third pitch. The floor is organizational depth if the command and contact management do not improve.
