20. Luis De La Torre LHP. DOB: 9/6/2003. 6' 0", 188 lbs. Rule 5 Eligible Dec. 2026.
2025(ACL): 2-1, 3.72, 38.2 IP, 14.43 K/9, 3.72 BB/9, 0.95 GB/FB.
2025(A): 2-2, 1.77, 35.2 IP, 11.86 K/9, 2.78 BB/9, 2.16 GB/FB.
MLB Pipeline scouting report says FB sits 94-96 MPH, touches 98. Slider is a plus pitch at times. Changeup a work in progress. I saw him pitch in San Bernardino and was impressed with his pitch mix and command. Not sure why his groundball rate jumped after promotion to San Jose. Maybe the coaches there were able to add a 2-seam sinker? Should move up to A+ with a chance to advance to AA during the season. Will likely need to be added to 40-man roster after the season to protect him from the Rule 5 Draft. Starting to generate some national buzz but still a sleeper/breakout prospect in the system.
