View Draft Report
A physical righthander with a 6-foot-2, 215-pound frame, Adams started his career with Arkansas and pitched only briefly over two seasons in 2020 and 2021. He transferred to Kansas State for the 2022 season. This spring he posted a 5.07 ERA over 13 starts and 87 innings, with 90 strikeouts (23.2 K%) and 34 walks (8.8 BB%). Adams works with a four-pitch mix, starting with a fastball that is typically in the 92-93 mph range but gets up to 95. He also throws a mid-80s slider, upper-70s curveball and mid-80s changeup and used each three pitches frequently this spring. Scouts believe his stuff is close to average across the board and believe he has a chance to throw harder in the future.
