Scouting Report

draft

Video scouting report »

Scouting grades: Fastball: 50 | Slider: 50 | Changeup: 55 | Control: 50 | Overall: 40

The University of Connecticut has produced a good amount of big league arms over the years, with former first-round pick Matt Barnes leading the more recent crop and Jacob Wallace and Tim Cate having gone in the top three rounds over the last few Drafts. Casparius, a Connecticut native who spent two years hitting and pitching at North Carolina before transferring to UConn, might not go quite that highly, but his combination of stuff and relatively fresh arm intrigued scouts in 2021.

While not the biggest guy in the world at 6 feet, Casparius is strong and athletic and has the chance to have a legitimate three-pitch mix. His fastball sits around 91 mph in most starts, but he’ll touch 94-95 on occasion. He can miss bats with his low-80s slider, a breaking ball with good hard, short action to it, but it’s his changeup that’s his best pitch, an offspeed offering also in the low 80s that features good fade, can serve as a strikeout pitch and gets weak contact on the ground.

He’s generally a strike-thrower, with a couple of bad outings upping his walk rate this year, and his simple and repeatable delivery point to good command in the future. Prior to starting for UConn, Casparius had thrown just 27 innings, so there isn’t a lot of mileage on his arm. That also means there’s not a ton of history on him, though the Huskies helped offset that with a very scout-accessible fall program. He’s been a consistent member of their weekend rotation this spring.

2024

Scouting grades: Fastball: 55 | Curveball: 50 | Slider: 60 | Control: 40 | Overall: 40

Casparius spent two seasons as a two-way player at North Carolina before transferring to Connecticut and concentrating on pitching in 2021. He led the Big East Conference with 127 strikeouts in 91 2/3 innings that spring before the Dodgers drafted him in the fifth round. He had no problem missing bats but logged a 5.18 ERA in his first three pro seasons before finding more success in Double-A and Triple-A this year.

Casparius' best pitch is a plus mid-80s slider with horizontal and vertical action that he also can turn into an upper-80s slider. His fastball has ticked up a bit in 2024 and now operates at 93-95 mph and tops out at 99 with some armside run and carry when he locates it up in the zone. He also has a low-80s curveball with depth, but it's not nearly as effective as his slider.

Los Angeles continues to develop Casparius as a starter but he looks like more of a multi-inning reliever for the long run. He almost never uses a changeup, has battled walks throughout his pro career and lacks fastball command. His slider is a legitimate weapon that could be useful in high-leverage situations.

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.
