12-9-22 - 2022 Fall Report: Florida State

The Seminoles remain well stocked with power arms, headlined by three high-end talents in lefthander Wyatt Crowell and righties Carson Montgomery and Jackson Baumeister, all of whom have Day One draft potential. 

A major question mark is how Jarrett and pitching coach Chuck Ristano elect to deploy Crowell, who racked up 77 strikeouts in 48 innings over 28 relief appearances last year, posting a 2.12 ERA. He followed up that stellar spring by working four appearances for Team USA, allowing no earned runs while showing 93-95 mph heat along with a vicious slider at 83-85 and a solid fading changeup in the mid-80s. His stuff was similar against Kennesaw State — he’s an ultra-reliable commodity, but it’s unclear how his stuff would play in longer stints as a starter given his wiry 6-foot, 170-pound physique.

37. Wyatt Crowell, LHP, Florida State – A 6-foot lefty with zero starts to his name in college, Crowell has a lot to prove this Spring if he wants to be selected high in the draft. He has a legit fastball that gets into the mid-to-upper 90s with a slider that has late break and a change that has some real upside. He has decent leg drive and better control than most college relievers, so there is definitely some hope he can make it as a starter. If he were a pure reliever, he would probably just miss out on this list, but I think there is enough hope he can stick in a rotation.
