Notes

Comments

2/17/25
Craven had one of the most eye-opening performances on the mound. The Victoria Mariners product ran the fastball up to 83.9, up a significant 12 miles per hour from our last in-event look. The pitch that stood out the most for Craven, however, was his changeup. Featuring an average 19.7 inches of horizontal movement, maxing out at 22.0 inches with a 7-9 MPH velocity differential from his fastball, the changeup has the makings of a very effective pitch. Craven is a 2027 that we will keep tabs on throughout his sophomore season.
