School: Calvary Christian HS, Clearwater, Fla. Source: HS

Commit/Drafted: North Carolina State
Age At Draft: 18.6

Tools:Fastball: 55. Curveball: 50. Changeup: 60. Control: 50.

Maroudis has a background as a two-way player, but his future looks brightest on the mound and he is a part of one of the deepest and most talented prep pitching staffs with Calvary Christian High in Clearwater, Fla. Maroudis has a 6-foot-3, 195-pound frame with plenty of strength in his lower half currently, but still more room to fill out and layer on good weight. Maroudis has a relatively simple operation with a three-quarter slot and some head whack and effort in his finish, with a spinoff to the first base side in his landing. His fastball has steadily climbed over the years, and now sits at 89-93 mph and touches 94. His changeup is advanced for his age, with more than 10 mph of separation off his fastball at 79-82 mph while maintaining his arm speed. It’s a potential plus pitch with impressive fade and sink to miss bats. His changeup is ahead of his breaking stuff, and Maroudis has thrown a get-me-over curveball, but showed more of a slider in the low 80s this spring. Maroudis has been a solid strike-thrower, though his fastball command can come and go, but his athleticism bodes well for his ability to make adjustments and repeat his delivery. That athleticism is also evident in his quick pickoff move as well. He is committed to North Carolina State.

Top Rankings

Organization Prospect Rankings

BA Grade: 50/Extreme

Track Record: Maroudis was a two-way standout for Florida high school powerhouse Cavalry Christian who started at shortstop on days he didn’t pitch. He ranked as the 82nd overall prospect for the the 2023 draft and was viewed as one of the top high school talents in the state of Florida. The Blue Jays selected Maroudis in the fourth round and signed him for $1.5 million, their second-highest bonus in the class. He did not pitch following the draft.

Scouting Report: Maroudis is an athletic righthander with a tall, projectable build. He delivers the ball from a low three-quarters arm slot with some violence in his delivery at release, including a head whack and wicked recoil. Maroudis’ stuff steadily grew over his time in high school. He mixes four pitches: a four-seam fastball, slider, curveball and changeup. His fastball sits 90-93 mph and touches 96 with above-average ride and good plane. Maroudis’ primary secondary is a low-80s changeup with good velocity and vertical separation off his fastball. Maroudis mixes two breaking balls in a low-80s slider and a curveball in the mid 70s. The slider is a newer addition to his repertoire but has overtaken the curveball in effectiveness. Maroudis shows average command of his secondaries.

The Future: Maroudis is an exciting high school righthander with starter traits and the makings of an average or better three-pitch mix.
