Hunter Owen
LHP Vanderbilt
3-3-23 - Keith Law’s MLB Draft 2023 Rankings: -
#27 Hunter Owen, LHP, Vanderbilt
This might be getting ahead of things a bit, but if I told you there was a 6-6, 240-pound lefty starter, who’s up to 97 with a plus CB and has a history of throwing strikes, and who pitches for Vanderbilt, you’re interested, right? That guy does often go in the first round or the supplemental, and if Owen, who has made two starts this year after making just one total in his first two years in Nashville, keeps this up and shows the kind of control he did last spring, he’ll get up into the top 25-40 picks.

Hunter Owen is an electric southpaw with upper-90s stuff, though he more comfortably rests a few ticks lower than that. The arm talent is really substantial, especially considering Owen's handedness. Many scouts believe Owen may be one of the premier strikeout artists in the class. Folks want to see him stretched out a bit more, going longer outings as he works his way toward pro ball. He flashes a really good curveball that's flashed promise, as well as a changeup that possesses a hellish tunnel off his fastball. It's still a pretty raw profile, but the upside here is big.
