Scouting Report

2025

Payne drew some scouting interest as a Pennsylvania high schooler in 2024 but lacked power to his stuff and appeared headed to college at George Mason. After the Marlins were able to sign him for $235,000 as an 18th-rounder, he dazzled with his breaking balls in his pro debut this summer. He led the Rookie-level Florida Complex League with 55 strikeouts in 39 2/3 innings and earned a promotion to Single-A in August.

Payne's best pitch is an upper-70s curveball with quality depth, and he also spins a solid low-80s slider with similar shape. Both offerings overmatched FCL hitters, though he'll need to upgrade a fastball that has ordinary velocity (sitting at 90-93 mph, peaking at 95) and more sink than carry. He's in the early stages of developing a low-80s kick changeup that dives at the plate when it's on.

Working from a three-quarters arm slot, Payne uses his 6-foot-3 build to create extension. He has projection remaining in his frame, so he should add more velocity to his arsenal. His control and command are works in progress, but he has the upside of a No. 4 starter, and his ability to spin the ball gives him a backup plan as a lefty reliever.
