Scouting Report – Wil Crowe

Wil Crowe           RHP        Potomac Nationals (High-A)         Date Evaluated: 4/25/18

Fastball (50/55) Slider (50/55) Changeup (50/55) Curveball (40/45) Command (50/50)

Crowe was Washington’s 2nd round pick, 65th overall, in the 2017 MLB Draft.  Listed at 6-2 240lbs, Crowe is well-built with a thick lower-half and zero projection remaining.  The 23-year-old pitcher (born 9/9/94) throws from a traditional high 3/4s arm slot and utilizes a simple, one-step windup into his medium effort delivery.  He has a medium leg-kick and gets reasonable extension toward home plate.  Crowe is a decent athlete who reasonably repeats his mechanics, impressively fields his position and holds runners well.  He has a mature approach attacking hitters, moving the ball in and out, up and down to keep hitters off-balance.  His command and control in this outing was average, which was impressive considering the poor weather (sub-50s and drizzle) and inconsistent strike zone.

Crowe features a traditional 4-pitch repertoire, consisting of a fastball, changeup, curveball and slider.  His fastball sat 90-93mph throughout the outing, mainly 92mph, with quality movement – at the higher velocity bands the ball showed some cutting action and at lower speeds it will sink toward his arm-side.  His slider was 84-86mph, some showing quality break away from righties and others with a slurvy, 10-4 shape – it was average in this outing and could be above-average with further refinement.  The changeup sat 81-84mph with good arm action and quality movement, like a waterfall about 55 feet from the mound.  It consistently fooled left-handed hitters and was his best off-speed pitch on the evening.  Finally Crowe throws a 78-81mph curveball with a loopy shape he locates for strikes.  It was more of a “get-me-over” pitch, but could be a future average offering.

Crowe has a past Tommy John surgery which elevates the injury risk in his profile.  The lack of a plus offering limits his ceiling, but the combination of a durable pitcher’s frame, and the potential for four average or better pitches gives him a profile as a #4 starter.  Aside from injury, I envision him as a productive back-end starting pitcher.  Crowe should see Double-A this season and could be major league ready late in 2019.
