Brooks Auger

Pitching scouting report · 80Grade

Scouting summary

Auger’s path is built on a solid power fastball and a mix of secondaries that have been good enough to miss bats when his release point is stable. The 2025 season showed the risk side of the profile, with walk pressure and contact damage overwhelming the stuff at times, but the stronger 2026 strikeout rate suggests there is still starter utility if the command trend holds. The most likely outcome is a back-end or swingman-type major league pitcher, with the ceiling of a fifth starter if the strike throwing and changeup separation continue to improve.

Projected MLB role: up-down starter
