View Draft Report

Workman served as Cal State Fullerton's swingman in 2018, making the occasional start and often working 3-4 inning relief stints. Nothing stands out about Workman, but he's been effective his whole career. He pitches at 89-91 mph, commands his fastball to both sides of the plate and mixes in his slurvy breaking ball and developing changeup effectively. He pounds the strike zone and sets up hitters well enough to generate strikeouts, despite the fact that none of his pitches grade better than average. Workman has primarily relieved in his college career, so he may want to return to school as a senior and prove he can start. His pedigree as an accomplished Fullerton righthander gives him a chance to be picked above where his raw stuff would indicate.
