| Summary: Long and projectable from the left side, Frusco brings a clean arm action and the type of frame that suggests more velocity is still to come. The fastball has steadily climbed from the high-80s into the low-90s, now touching 95 with strong carry and late arm-side tail. His delivery is easy and athletic, allowing the ball to jump on hitters with life through the zone. While the command can waver at times, the overall operation is fluid enough to project refinement with reps. The breaking ball—a low-80s slider with sweep—flashes above-average bite and serves as his primary weapon against both lefties and righties. A developing mid-80s changeup rounds out the mix, giving him a true three-pitch foundation. Frusco’s combination of youth, physical projection, and arm speed points to a rotation future, with the upside to grow into a durable mid-rotation starter once the command and secondaries sync up more consistently. | |||||||||||
