    A 6-foot, 185-pound lefthander, Schweitzer pitched out of the bullpen for Ball State for two years before transitioning to a full-time starting role this spring. He excelled in the new role, posting a 2.65 ERA over 16 starts and 91.2 innings with 112 strikeouts (29.6 K%) and 30 walks (7.9 BB%). A smaller lefthander, Schweitzer has average stuff across the board, with a fastball that sits around 89-91 mph and has been up to 96, as well as a solid slider around 80 mph and a changeup in the low 80s. All three look like average pitches, and he has shown enough strikes to warrant a chance at starting at the next level, but his stuff might play up better out of the pen.
