View Draft Report
A tall righthander with a 6-foot-4, 206-pound frame, Szczepanski is a projectable pitcher with a body that has plenty of room to fill out and add strength. He pitched in the low 90s last summer but has been up to 96 mph this spring, with two distinct breaking balls. There’s quite a bit of effort in Szczepanski’s delivery, with a stabbing and contorted arm action that could limit his command at the next level—he’s more scattered than precise with his strike-throwing currently—but he is a sound athlete and a former high school quarterback. On the right day his stuff is explosive and loud, but given his effort and reliever risk, many teams might prefer to see him go to campus at Michigan. If he does make it to school, he will be a draft-eligible sophomore in the 2024 class.
