Ethan Pecko

Pitching scouting report · 80Grade

Scouting summary

Pecko projects as a back-end starter who can give a club innings if the command and health hold together. The fastball/slider/cutter mix gives him enough swing-and-miss to survive against right-handed hitters, but the overall profile still depends on consistent strikes and keeping the ball off the middle of the plate. His ceiling looks more like an emergency or solid No. 5 than a true mid-rotation arm, while the floor is a swingman or depth reliever if the command backs up or the health history resurfaces. The quickest path to that role is continued fastball quality, steady strike throwing, and enough secondary consistency to turn over a lineup multiple times.

Projected MLB role: up-down #5 starter
