This week is another interesting week, based on how I usually write articles. Looking at all the comments, I think that most of you have concluded that you want a pitcher. So I have all pitchers here today, and I’ll start with one who I haven’t covered before, but is another great arm.
Kyson Witherspoon, from Oklahoma, has been pretty dominant this year and has been kind of in the shadows since there are so many great arms. He’s posted a 2.45 ERA over 91 innings pitched and has 104 strikeouts. Along with those strikeouts, he has only walked 20 batters this year. Which over 91 innings is pretty dang good. Here are his stats for the weekend: 5 IP, 6 hits, 4 runs, 2 walks, and 5 Ks.
Moving on to a top candidate for the Halos this summer, from Florida State, Jamie Arnold. He has been great all year and could end up being the favorite for the Angels come draft day. He has been consistent all season. He can work deep into games, and he can throw a lot of pitches if needed. Here is his stat line for the weekend: 6IP, 6 hits, 2 runs, 1 earned, 2 walks, and 9 Ks. Another great outing for Jamie Arnold as he continues to make his case for the best pitcher in the country.
Kade Anderson popped on my radar a few weeks ago. It wasn’t even because I was watching him, I was watching Liam Doyle, and was very impressed with how Kade threw. He’s been pretty consistent all year and has stamped himself as a top arm in the country. Here’s how his weekend went: 5.2 IP, 7 hits, 3 runs, 1 walk, and 10 Ks. Kade is another high-strikeout and low-walk guy. This class is loaded with arms.
For our last arm, Liam Doyle has been electric all year. Doyle has really honed in this year; he’s been at 3 different schools all 3 years, and Tennessee was really able to dial him in. He’s racked up over 130 strikeouts and has been lights out. Here are his weekend stats: 7 IP, 3 hits, 0 runs, no walks, and 12 Ks. A great outing, and I’m not surprised at all that he’s continued his domination.
Stay tuned for weekly updates on the best players in college!
