Webb had big, big interest in the 2020 MLB Draft. Number was said to be a little too high, but there were teams that had a 2nd round grade on him. Stuff was ticking up in a shortened season. If he gets the innings in 2021, he could be a Top 50 pick.

146. Ryan Webb - LHP

 

Bio:

Height: 6-1

Weight: 196 lbs

Hits/Throws: L-R

Hometown: Roswell, GA

School: Georgia

 

6-foot-1, 196-pound southpaw has a FB touching 94-95 mph. Curveball, changeup, slider/cutter secondaries. Curveball is 75-80 mph with depth, while the slider is thrown in the 81-84 mph range with less movement but could be an above-average or better offering. Gyro heavy slider. Changeup gives him a fourth average offering in the 82-84 mph with fade. Primarily a reliever in college, the arsenal and ticking fastball/slider combo may encourage a team to push him into a rotation role. There was plenty of interest for Webb in the 2020 draft, though his number was reportedly a little too rich for some teams. That may change with a bigger sample size and bigger bonus pools in 2021.
