Segura earned a spot in Oregon State’s weekend rotation coming out of fall ball, and he has performed well in the role to the tune of a 3.50 ERA with 34 strikeouts to just seven walks across 36 innings. The 6-foot-2 righty has an up-tempo, drop-and-drive delivery and attacks hitters from a near-sidearm slot. He has plus control of his fastball that sits in the low 90s and has been up to 94, but it gets on hitters quick. Segura’s high-70s-to-low-80s slider has flashed plus with tons of sweep, while his changeup has also proven itself as a valuable weapon. An above-average strike-thrower, Segura will continue to pitch on weekends for the Beavers and figures to start professionally. -

Segura entered the spring largely unknown after not pitching on the summer showcase circuit and playing at remote Soledad (Calif.) High, about 90 miles south of San Jose. He emerged as a pop-up prospect this spring with added velocity and sent crosscheckers making the long trip in to see him. Segura is a 6-foot-1, 190 pound righthander with a heavy sinker that sits 89-91 mph and touches 93-94 mph. His main secondary pitch is a firm slider that flashes plus with sharp break, although it flattens out at times and is inconsistent. He’ll flash an average changeup that is also inconsistent. Segura is a good athlete with a clean delivery and fills up the strike zone. He has plenty of physical projection remaining, leading to optimism his stuff will continue ticking up. Segura requires a lot of projection, but his athleticism and solid three-pitch mix make for a strong foundation. He is committed to Oregon State.
