| Summary: Acquired in the Merrill Kelly deal, Hagaman is a long-levered righty with size and athleticism, he showed both the promise and rough edges of his game in his first pro looks. The fastball sits mid-90s, reaching 98 with late hop, and it jumps more because of the length and extension he creates down the mound. His slider in the upper 80s flashes wipeout quality, while a fading changeup provides a third look, though his timing wavers and leads to erratic strikes. There’s starter potential if the strike throwing and durability stabilize after surgery, but the fallback is plenty valuable: the fastball/slider pairing would slot cleanly into a late-inning role where his power arsenal would play very well. | |||||||||||
