View Draft Report

Holobetz is a 6-foot-3, 190-pound righthander who started his career at Radford, before spending the 2023 and 2024 seasons with Old Dominion. He’s primarily pitched out of the bullpen and throws a 90-95 mph fastball, mid-80s changeup and 82-86 mph slider. Scouts believe the changeup is his best pitch, a potential weapon, but his breaking ball is more of a work in progress. Despite his reliever history, he throws enough strikes to potentially start in pro ball and owns a career 7.5% walk rate.
