Commit/Drafted: Never Drafted Age At Draft: 23.7 Lindsey has had a long and winding college career. He started at Walters State (Tenn.) JC, where he pitched for two seasons before joining Charlotte in 2021, where he led the team with 81 innings as a starter and reliever. After not playing in 2022, Lindsey transferred to Tennessee for the 2023 season, where he pitched out of the bullpen until transitioning to a starting role in late April when he struck out 10 batters in 6.2 innings against Vanderbilt. He eventually moved into the team’s Friday night role and overall posted a 2.90 ERA through nine starts and 71.1 innings, with a 24.6% strikeout rate and 6.4% walk rate. He attacks hitters with a hard, sinking fastball that sits in the mid 90s and has been up to 98 mph, and primarily goes to a hard, upper-80s slider/cutter as his go-to secondary and bat-misser. Lindsey has also used a slower curveball in the upper 70s with more top-down shape, and will flash the rare low-to-mid-80s changeup as well. He has an assortment of quality pitches, a strong frame and a solid history throwing strikes, but he will already be 23 years old on draft day.
