Jedixson Paez
Pitching scouting report · 80Grade
Scouting summary
Paez projects as a potential back-end starter whose path depends on his command and secondaries compensating for a below-average fastball. The changeup and slider give him legitimate weapons, and his ability to repeat the delivery and limit walks creates a plausible floor as depth or a swingman. Sustaining the 2026 minor-league strikeout-to-walk gains against stronger lineups would be important, particularly because the fastball can be squared when it is not precisely located. The more conservative outcome is a shuttle starter or long reliever, while the ceiling is a durable No. 5 type if the secondaries remain above average and the delivery holds together.
