3/05/26

6-foot-2, 170-pounds, high-waisted, athletic, left/left two-way prospect made a strong impression at his first Prep Baseball showcase. Crowder had shown well multiple times in Prep Baseball Tournaments in the past and solidified his status with this recent showing. Crowder is a fluid overall mover who ran a 6.85 60, took an easy all-fields round of BP and then ran his fastball up to 89 mph while showing feel for two breaking balls and a fading changeup. High-follow two-way prospect in the class.

Uncommitted. Good first look in his start on Friday and another good look in his relief outing on Tuesday. On Friday he showcased mainly a two pitch mix and threw on change-up with solid command for both his fastball and his curveball. On Friday his fastball topped out at 85 and lived primarily in the 82-84 range and his curveball was 73-74 and on Tuesday sat primarily in the same range, but his fastball topped out at 86. Generated a lot of weak contact and swing and misses. Has a very smooth delivery on the mound with a confidence on the mound when he pitches. Stat line from Friday: 4IP/2H/0ER/5k’s.
