8. Hurston Waldrep

Right-Handed Pitcher, Florida 

Waldep transferred out of Southern Miss to Florida for his junior year after some impressive undergrad campaigns. The fastball gets up to 97 with immense hop at the top of the zone and true bat-missing qualities. The slider is thrown firm and short with late two-plane tilt that Waldrep gets hitters to chase with regularity. He's also flashed an above average changeup, though it's inconsistent both in shape and execution. Waldrep has a super-athletic frame with well-proportioned strength and a wicked quick arm. He's a true power pitcher with a bulldog mentality on the bump.

9. Angels: Hurston Waldrep, RHP, Southern Miss

Waldrep made a very strong transition to the Southern Miss rotation in 2022, striking out 14 batters per nine innings while walking 3.3. He’s bringing his mid-90s fastball (up to 98), a hard slider up to 90 mph, an occasional slower curve and a mid-80s changeup. He misses a ton of bats with all of his secondary stuff.
