Steven Echavarria
Pitching scouting report · 80Grade
Scouting summary
Echavarria’s path to a big-league role is built on the chance for three usable pitches and a fastball that can miss bats when elevated with life. The ceiling is probably that of a back-end starter if the strike throwing tightens, but the more realistic outcome is a pitcher who bounces between the rotation and the bullpen while the command works itself out. The present walk and contact profile suggests more development time is needed before the raw stuff can play efficiently against advanced hitters. If the delivery and fastball location sharpen, he can still make good on the starter look; if not, the stuff fits a relief conversion where the fastball-slider combination can simplify the plan.
