Scouting Report

draft

Video scouting report »

Scouting grades: Fastball: 55 | Slider: 65 | Changeup: 50 | Control: 50 | Overall: 50

With his 6-foot-9 frame and low three-quarters arm slot, Schultz conjures physical comparisons to Randy Johnson. He can't match the power in the Hall of Famer's arsenal, but Schultz is a lot more polished than Johnson was as a teenager. He's also difficult to figure out because he barely pitched as a high school senior and is strongly committed to Vanderbilt.

Schultz's biggest weapon is an upper-70s slider with horizontal break that's nearly impossible for lefties to track because of the angle he presents, and he also can back-foot it against righties. His fastball sat at 89-92 mph and peaked at 94 with good carry and armside run on the showcase circuit last summer, and he's not afraid to work it inside on right-handers. He hasn't had much need for a changeup yet but shows some aptitude for throwing one with some fade.

Schultz has unusual athleticism and body control for such a tall youngster and he keeps all of his moving parts in sync by working out of the stretch. Scouts would like to see him add some more velocity and he began to trend up a bit during the fall before dealing at 92-96 mph and also showcasing a sharper, harder slider in a two-inning outing to open his senior season. But he came down with mononucleosis soon afterward and displayed shaky control when he returned.

Scouting grades: Fastball: 60 | Slider: 70 | Changeup: 45 | Control: 50 | Overall: 55

Though Schultz barely pitched as a suburban Chicago high school senior while dealing with mononucleosis in 2022, he dominated college hitters in the Prospect League that summer. The White Sox ended a 21-year drought of taking high school arms in the first round by signing him for $2.8 million as the 26th overall pick. After a flexor strain and shoulder impingement limited him to 27 innings in his pro debut the following year, he won Double-A Southern League Pitcher of the Year accolades and emerged as baseball's best lefty pitching prospect in 2024. His stuff, control and stock slipped a bit as he battled tendinitis in his right knee throughout 2025, but he still has one of the highest ceilings in the Minors.

When he's 100 percent healthy, Schultz uses his 6-foot-10 frame and low arm slot to unleash wicked low-80s sliders with tremendous horizontal action that can eat up left-handers and right-handers. His fastball operates in the mid-90s and reaches 99 mph, though he prefers using grounder-inducing two-seamers to bat-missing four-seamers. His upper-80s changeup fades in the opposite direction from his slider but is a bit firm and lost effectiveness last season.

Schultz exhibits advanced body control for a pitcher his size and his age, allowing him to repeat his delivery fairly easily. He carried a 5 percent walk rate in his first two pro seasons before it spiked to 14 percent when his knee acted up in 2025. His size, arm slot and slider create persistent comparisons to Randy Johnson, but Schultz has more polish at the same stage than the Hall of Famer did, even if he needs to refine the rest of his repertoire.

Scouting grades: Fastball: 60 | Slider: 65 | Changeup: 50 | Control: 50 | Overall: 55

Mononucleosis wiped out almost all of Schultz's high school senior season, but the suburban Chicago product dominated college hitters in the summer Prospect League leading up to the 2022 Draft, convincing the White Sox to end a 21-year drought of not taking prep pitchers in the first round. After signing for $2.8 million as the 26th overall pick, Schultz worked just 27 innings in his 2023 pro debut while dealing with a flexor strain and a shoulder impingement. He stayed healthy in 2024 and earned Southern League Pitcher of the Year accolades by posting a 1.48 ERA and a 73/17 K/BB ratio in 61 innings following a promotion to Double-A in late May, though he hasn't been nearly as dominant this season.

With his 6-foot-10 frame and low three-quarters arm slot, Schultz creates exceptional horizontal movement on a wipeout slider that continues to gain velocity -- now sitting in the low 80s and reaching 88 mph. He has boosted his fastball from 89-92 mph in high school to 93-97 with a peak of 99 mph as a pro. He blows four-seamers by hitters up in the strike zone but doesn't miss many bats when he tries to sink heavy two-seamers, generating a lot of ground-ball contact instead.

Schultz has done a nice job honing an upper-80s changeup that can get a bit firm but is an effective offering that fades in an opposite direction from his slider. He has advanced body control for a pitcher who is so large and so young, and his control and command both grade as better than average. His frame, arm angle and slider prompt inevitable comparisons to Randy Johnson, but Schultz is a much more polished pitcher at the same stage of development.

Scouting grades: Fastball: 60 | Slider: 70 | Changeup: 50 | Control: 55 | Overall: 60

Schultz barely pitched as an Illinois high school senior in 2022 while battling mononucleosis but did dominate the Prospect League, a wood-bat college summer circuit, leading up to the Draft. The White Sox ended a 21-year span of not taking prep pitchers in the first round by selecting him 26th overall and signed him away from a Vanderbilt commitment for $2.8 million. They handled him with care, as he missed the first two months of his 2023 pro debut with a flexor strain and his final couple of starts with a shoulder impingement, but in between he allowed a run in just one of his 10 Single-A outings while striking out 38 in 27 innings.

Schultz had one of the best sliders in the 2022 Draft, and his low-80s sweeper with high spin rates continued to destroy lower-level hitters because he creates exceptionally wide angle with his huge 6-foot-9 frame and low three-quarters arm slot. His four-seam fastball has sat at 93-95 mph and touched 97 in short stints the last two years, and Chicago is helping him add a sinking two-seam version as well. He's in the nascent stages of developing his changeup, a fading mid-80s offering that shows signs of becoming average.

With his size and arm angle, Schultz persistently draws physical comparisons to Randy Johnson. Though he's not as overpowering as the Hall of Famer, he's far more polished at the same stage of their careers. He has unusual athleticism and body control for a tall youngster, pounded the strike zone during his brief pro debut and exhibits very good feel for his slider.

2023

Scouting grades: Fastball: 55 | Slider: 65 | Changeup: 50 | Control: 50 | Overall: 55

Hard to scout as an Illinois high school senior because he barely pitched after contracting mononucleosis, Schultz boosted his stock by heading to the Prospect League and posting a 0.93 ERA with 37 strikeouts in 19 1/3 innings in the wood bat college summer circuit. The White Sox hadn't taken a prep pitcher in the first round since Kris Honel in 2001 before they selected Schultz 26th overall in July and signed him away from a Vanderbilt commitment for $2.8 million. After a flexor strain in Spring Training delayed his pro debut until June 2023, he dominated Single-A hitters while working with a mid-90s fastball.

Schultz's slider ranked among the best in the 2022 Draft, a low-80s sweeper with high spin rates that's death on left-handers because of the angle he creates with his huge 6-foot-9 frame and low three-quarters arm slot. His fastball parked at 89-94 mph on the showcase circuit and jumped to 92-97 in short stints in 2022, and Chicago has helped him add a sinking two-seamer that could give him another weapon. He's in the early stages of developing a mid-80s changeup with fade that shows the makings of becoming an average pitch.

Because of Schultz's size and arm angle, the obvious physical comparison is Randy Johnson. He can't match the Hall of Famer's power -- though his velocity is on the rise -- but he has uncommon athleticism and body control for a tall teenager and is much more polished than Johnson was at the same stage. His control was scattered during his brief senior season but he generally throws strikes and commands his slider well.

2022

Scouting grades: Fastball: 55 | Slider: 60 | Changeup: 50 | Control: 50 | Overall: 50

The White Sox went 21 years between drafting high school pitchers in the first round before they selected homestate product Schultz 26th overall this July. He was hard to scout during the spring because he came down with mononucleosis and barely pitched, but he helped his cause by dominating the Prospect League, a wood-bat college summer circuit, with a 0.93 ERA and 37 strikeouts in 19 1/3 innings leading up to the Draft. Chicago signed him away from a Vanderbilt commitment for $2.8 million.

Schultz had one of the best sliders in the 2022 Draft, a low-80s sweeper with high spin rates that's nearly impossible for left-handers to deal with because of the difficult angle he presents with a 6-foot-9 frame and low three-quarters arm slot. His fastball velocity improved from 89-94 mph on the showcase circuit last summer to 92-96 this year, and he has some armside run on his heater and the confidence to bust it inside on right-handers. He didn't need a changeup as a prepster but shows aptitude for throwing one with some fading action.

As a lefty with his size and arm angle, Schultz draws physical comparisons to Randy Johnson. He can't match the power in the Hall of Famer's arsenal, but he has unusual athleticism and body control for such a tall teenager and is much more polished than Johnson was at the same stage. His control was shaky during his brief senior season but should become average as he gains more experience.

Pitch Movement

How this works: This section shows two different ways to evaluate pitch movement. On the left, “Total Movement” shows the real-world movement of a pitch, including the forces of gravity, which affects every pitch thrown. Since gravity requires time, and slower pitches aren't 'better' just because they have more time to move, a pitch's movement is compared to other pitches of the same pitch type, within +/- 2 MPH and +/- 0.5 feet of extension/release. On the right, Induced Movement (or IVB) is reported without gravity, and attempts to isolate movement created by the pitcher's ability to spin and manipulate the ball.
