School: Mountain Pointe HS, Phoenix. Committed: Texas. Age At Draft: 19.0
Crossland has an extra-large, physically mature 6-foot-5 frame with some of the best raw stuff in the country, headlined by a power fastball that has already reached 97 mph. The depth of quality pitches in Crossland’s repertoire has impressed as well. He throws a hard, tight slider at 83-87 mph and a sharp curveball at 76-80 mph, with tight rotation on both breaking balls. Crossland hasn’t used his changeup as much but it’s another swing-and-miss pitch with good sink and fade to help neutralize lefties. Crossland’s strike-throwing has taken a step forward, but that’s still the part of his game that will need the most development as he learns to repeat his delivery more consistently. -
