View Draft Report
A 6-foot-5, 230-pound reliever with Iowa Western JC, Chadwick posted a 3.21 ERA this spring over 28 innings, with 32 strikeouts (10.3 K/9) and 13 walks (4.2 BB/9). He has a fastball that gets up to 96 mph and sat around 92-93 this spring and has mixed in a low-to-mid-80s slider as his go-to secondary offering. Chadwick has also infrequently thrown a mid-80s changeup, but as a straight reliever profile he likely won’t need to use the pitch all that often. Chadwick was a hard-throwing high school player who was touching the mid 90s as a senior, and has added about 20-25 pounds of weight to his frame since then.

A football, basketball and baseball player in high school, Chadwick has some of the easiest velocity found among prep pitchers in the Upper Midwest. Already 6-foot-5, 205 pounds, it’s easy to envision Chadwick reaching triple-digits eventually. He already can get to 94-97 mph. His below-average control wavers significantly through outings when he struggles to stay through his delivery. His 82-85 mph slider is inconsistent and too often spins with little bite. Chadwick has a lot of work to do, but the West Virginia signee has a very high upside. If he is drafted this year, he would be the first player ever drafted out of Marshall (Wisc.) High.
