Ixan Henderson
Pitching scouting report · 80Grade
Scouting summary
Henderson looks like a back-end starter who has enough strikeouts and durability to keep himself in the conversation for major league innings, but probably not enough pure stuff to project much beyond the fifth spot. The 2025 season supports a starter forecast, especially given the innings load and solid run prevention, while the 2026 elbow/flexor issue is the main reason to stay guarded. If the command continues to trend toward average and the arm stays healthy, he can settle into a useful rotation or swing role; if the strike-throwing backs up or the stuff dips after injury, the floor moves quickly toward up-down depth. The ceiling is limited by the likely average fastball quality and only modest physical projection, but the track record still points to a real chance at MLB starts.
