Joe Whitman LHP. DOB: 9/17/2001. 6' 5", 200 lbs. Rule 5 Eligible Dec. 2026.
2025(AA): 5-11, 5.29, 117.1 IP, 9.51 K/9, 3.61 BB/9, 1.23 GB/FB.
Drafted in round 2C in 2023 out of Kent State. Whitman has a classic 3-pitch starters mix, but may not have that dominant put away pitch he can use to get out of trouble. FB goes 93-95 MPH. Some of his disappointing ERA last season may be due to bad BAPIP luck as his was .364. His FIP was 3.61. He might start 2026 season back in AA Richmond and see if he can pitch in better luck.
