Andrew Sears

Pitching scouting report · 80Grade

Scouting summary

Sears has the ingredients of a back-end starter or, at minimum, a multi-inning lefty who can move through a lineup once or twice if the command and health cooperate. The velocity and strikeout totals suggest more than pure org depth, but the elbow history and the tendency to live with only fair location keep the ceiling modest. His path to a major league role is built on repeating a low-slot delivery, holding the breaking ball quality, and proving he can stay healthy enough for a full starter’s workload. The most likely outcome is a useful but limited left-handed arm who can reach the majors without projecting as an impact rotation piece.

Projected MLB role: up-down #5 starter
