Jaxon Wiggins
Pitching scouting report · 80Grade
Scouting summary
Wiggins has the raw ingredients of a back-end big-league starter: starter’s frame, starter’s arm speed, and enough miss to survive when the fastball and breaking ball are both working. The path to that role depends on tightening the strike throwing, because the present walk rate points to innings that can unravel quickly when his delivery gets quick or his release point wanders. If the command settles into an average band, the ceiling is a useful No. 4/5 type; if it does not, the stuff still gives him a fallback as a bullpen arm. The recent performance volatility makes him more of a development bet than a finished rotation answer.
