Scouting Report

While the Rockies selected Peter Lambert in the second round out of high school in 2015, his older brother Jimmy went undrafted as a prepster two years earlier. He blossomed into a fifth-round choice out of Fresno State in 2016, when he shared Mountain West Conference pitcher of the year honors. He ascended to Double-A two years after turning pro and pitched well in five starts there before getting shut down with an oblique injury last July, then made 11 starts at that level in 2019 before requiring Tommy John surgery.

Lambert succeeds by mixing four pitches that all grade from average to solid. He has added some spin and riding action to his fastball, which sits at 91-94 mph and tops out at 96. His 12-to-6 curveball is his most reliable secondary pitch, while his fading changeup helps him against left-handers and he can land his lateral-breaking slider for strikes.

Lambert's athleticism helps him repeat his delivery and throw consistent strikes. He doesn't have much margin for error and helps his cause by being stingy with walks and home runs. With some of the best metrics and polish in the White Sox system, he has a ceiling of a No. 4 starter.
