2/26/23

The 6-foot-2, 200-pound right-hander entered in relief of Skenes on Friday against K State and gave the instant look of a power reliever. Floyd was aggressive and attacked the corners. He worked in/out really well, especially during the first two innings of his three inning, five strikeout relief appearance. His direction to the plate was good and showed fair deception from a high three-quarter release point. His 92-97 mph fastball had good ride and he mixed a 78-82 fringe-quality slider that should develop into at least average in the future as he firms it up. On this look, Floyd was a mid Day Two (4th-5th round) prospect.

Floyd had very high acclaim as a prospect coming out of high school, but it wasn’t until the end of last season that things truly started to bud for him at the collegiate level. He has taken that next step since last season, too, showing electric stuff recently at an exhibition game between LSU and Louisiana. He showed an excellent repertoire against the Cajuns, sitting 95-96 mph with his fastball (the offering has been up to 97-98 mph this fall). He commanded the fastball well, which had a spin rate around 2500. He also showed excellent feel for a mid-80s changeup, a low-to-mid 80s slider and worked with a couple of softer curveballs at 75 mph with spin rates around 2800. The 6-foot-2, 195-pounder has an ability to throw four legitimate pitches for strikes, and that could be a game changer as the spring nears.

5/20/22

Getting the starting nod for game two, Floyd earned the W with 5.1 innings of one run ball. He allowed four hits and struck out seven while not issuing any free passes. His 92-95 mph fastball had plenty of life, showing plus late sink at times and generating handfuls of swing/miss. He showed limited feel for a 74-75 mph well below average breaking ball. His 79-81 changeup was fringe-quality, and was effective by slowing the Vandy bats. A sophomore who is draft-eligible by age for this summer's draft, the 6-foot-2 right hander would likely benefit from another year in Baton Rouge to hone his breaking ball which would elevate his current draft value. For the season Floyd is 5-3 with a 3.12 ERA and 58 strikeouts in 48 innings pitched.

LSU recruit, currently ranked No. 82 nationally, No. 3 in Georgia’s 2020 class. 6-foot-2, 180-pound right-handed pitcher, lean, athletic build. Topped out at 94 in the first inning, sitting 91-92. In the second, worked 88-93 with his fastball and 88-90 in the third inning. Threw a high volume of strikes with his fastball.. Breaking ball is inconsistent in shape, mostly early break in the mid-70s. Possesses plus arm speed. Soft stab at hand break but gets it up and out consistently.

9/16/19

Floyd is set to take his talent to Baton Rouge if the MLB draft does not get in his way. At SunTrust Park, he worked 90-93 mph with his fastball, showing solid feel for a changeup, too. Floyd’s athleticism on the mound will bring a bunch of scouts through Rockmart this spring and, if he can answer questions about his breaking ball, he has a chance to make a strong move up draft boards by June.
