49 RHP Christian Little LSU 

Little will be young for the 2023 class having been eligible as a prep in 2021. The top-ranked high school pitcher according to Perfect Game, Little decided to enroll early at Vanderbilt and immediately entered the rotation as a midweek anchor for the Commodores. The fastball can get up into the high-90s, though more comfortably sits in that 92-95 range for now. His heater has a lot of metric traits about it that teams will covet, and his deception forces opposing hitters to chase the pitch out of zone at alarming rates. That said, the next step in his development will be missing more bats in the zone with the pitch. Little has a promising firm curveball with good spin rates, though he'll need to continue refining his ability for consistent shape and command of the pitch. He also shows feel for a changeup that is used almost exclusively to left-handed hitters.

Christian Little, RHP, LSU 

Little spent his first two years at Vanderbilt before transferring to LSU this offseason. The 6-foot-4, 210-pound righty throws a fastball, cutter, slider and changeup from an over-the-top arm slot. 

Little’s fastball sits in the mid-90s, and it plays up due to the deception in his delivery. He has a solid mix of pitches and projects as a long-term starter. He displays respectable command and control of his pitches.
