View Draft Report
School: Texas Source: 4YR
Commit/Drafted: Never Drafted
Age At Draft: 23.7
Morehouse had some interest as a draft-eligible prospect in 2022, but returned to Texas for his second season with the program. In 2023 he pitched mostly out of the bullpen, but started four games, and posted a 5.21 ERA over 57 innings, with a 23.6% strikeout rate and 11.4% walk rate. Standing at 6-foot-4, 200 pounds, Morehouse has a strong, lean and loose body with a good delivery and arm action. His fastball sits 93-95 mph and has touched 97 and he pairs it with a hard, mid-80s slider that looks like a potential plus offering. There’s a great foundation of stuff and arm talent here, though Morehouse needs to find more strikes and consistency. He’ll be 23 on draft day and could be a senior sign target on day three or late on day two.

School: Texas Committed/Drafted: Never Drafted
Age At Draft: 22.7
The 6-foot-4, 200-pound redshirt sophomore features a 95-98 mph fastball and an 87-89 mph power slider that flashes plus when located. Morehouse’s 6.00 ERA in 39 innings pitched for Texas wasn’t a result of his size, athleticism or stuff, but rather his inconsistencies in the zone. When behind in the count, Morehouse becomes predictable, with a fastball that has a tendency to ride true and cover too much of the plate. Regardless of his struggles this spring, the athletic righty possesses attributes you simply can’t teach. The ingredients are certainly there for a promising prospect, Morehouse just needs to put it together.
