RHP Anthony Eyanson - LSU
Prospects
Live Ranking: #56
Anthony
Eyanson, a transfer from UC-San Diego, is one of the biggest transfer names
making noise this fall as he settles into his surroundings in Baton Rouge at
LSU. Eyanson enjoyed a breakout sophomore campaign in the Big West, going 6-2
with a 3.07 ERA over 82 innings pitched for the Tritons while striking out 85
batters. Most impressive is that he held opposing hitters to just a .190
batting average over his 14 appearances on the mound. The California native’s
arsenal features a low-90s fastball that can reach 97 MPH, but the breaking
balls are his bread-and-butter. He commands a low-80s slider with bite and a
mid-70s curveball well. Reports indicate he’s been very impressive during fall
ball with LSU and should be in line for a rotation spot. If he continues his
success against top competition in the SEC and adds velocity to the slider,
Eyanson’s stock will only rise.

Scouting Report on Eyanson from his time with Team USA this summer:
Anthony
Eyanson, RHP, UC San Diego/LSU - Showing a loose and quick arm from a high
three-quarter release point, Eyanson impressed at the trials. He filled up the
zone with a 95-97 mph fastball and a hammer-time 12/6 breaker in the upper-70s.
It showed as a plus-plus offering with consistent spin and control with
repeated spot-ups to his armside. He also showed a harder version of his
breaker, a power slurve at 83-84. There also looked to be more in the tank with
his No. 1. It’s a pitch that could very well bump into the triple-digits as
early as this fall in his new home of Baton Rouge.
