Scouting Report
& Links |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|

Physical Description: Medium
frame with projection remaining in both upper and lower body.
Mechanics: Throws from a three-quarters arm
slot. Starts on the first base side of the rubber.
Medium-to-high leg left. Some effort in delivery. Arm is short
behind and quick forward.
Fastball:
91-94 mph. Showed a velocity increase just prior to the 2021
season and was touching 98 mph prior to Feb. 2021 injury in
preseason scrimmages and Fall Ball in 2020. During 2020 season,
sat low-90s, topping out at 94. Fastball spin rate in the low
2000s.
Curveball: 77-79 mph. Long,
12-to-6 breaking ball with some depth. Does not always get over
it and consistently snap it off.
Changeup:
Circle changeup evolved from a split-fingered change. Clear
third pitch.
Slider: Fourth pitch. |

Career Notes: Father Lance
Dobbins played baseball at Alabama and in the Diamondbacks
system. All-State in high school. Pitched as a reliever in the
College World Series as a freshman in 2019. Midweek starter as a
sophomore in pandemic-shortened season. Injured his UCL during a
preseason scrimmage in 2021 and missed the season after
undergoing Tommy John surgery in March. Hopes to be able to
start throwing again in September 2021.
Summation:
Showed promise as a starter as a sophomore, but future
projection will depend on how his stuff comes back after his
surgery. Wide range of outcomes, but if velocity increase from
2021 holds, he is an interesting prospect with a mid-90s
fastball and three secondary offerings.
Note: This page will be updated with a
complete scouting report after the scouting team has seen the
player in person.
