Draft League Spotlight: Nathan Lavender
March 10, 2021
Player: Nathan Lavender
Position: LHP
School: Illinois
A stocky bodied lefty standing 6-foot-2, 210 pounds, Lavender can pump it up to 92 with arm strength and high effort. He throws with more control than command and will show some feel to spin a mid-70s slurve. Although he missed the 2020 season with injury, he had a stellar freshman campaign in 2019 with 37 strikeouts in 28.2 IP out of the Illinois bullpen.
