Draft Prospects

A 6-foot-2, 225-pound lefthander, Lothes racked up plenty of strikeouts for Charlotte this spring out of the bullpen after dealing with a strained lat in 2020. He posted a 3.10 ERA over 40.2 innings, with 54 strikeouts (12 K/9) and 23 walks (5.1 BB/9). Scouts think he’s a no-doubt reliever at the next level because of his strike throwing, but he’s got a chance for two plus pitches with a fastball that’s been up to 97 mph this spring and a big-breaking low-80s slider. Lothes has also thrown a mid-80s changeup infrequently this spring, but he probably won’t need to use it much in a reliever role. Lothes has a big leg kick in his delivery with significant drop and drive action and a steep, bent-over finish.
