Scouting the 2020 Draft: Seth Lonsway


Seth Lonsway LHP, College(Ohio St).  6'3", 195 lbs.

2019:  8-4, 3.70, 92.1 IP, 59 BB, 126 K.
2019 CCL:  2-0, 4.50, 12 IP, 12 BB, 10 K.
2020:  1-1, 1.13, 16 IP, 10 BB, 37 K.

Seth Lonsway has a classic pitcher's frame and is a lefty to boot.  His stock took a hit over the summer in the Cape Cod League where his velocity dropped into the high 80's and his walks exceeded his K's.  He's come out in his junior season at Ohio State firing 92-96 MPH. The walks are still a bit on the high side, but he's piling up K's at a rate of greater than 2 per inning.  If he keeps that up he is likely to take on serious helium as the draft approaches. His pitches are 4-seam FB with a curve and slider. No changeup, at least so far.
