    White excelled pitching primarily out of the bullpen for California in 2021 and moved into the Friday night starter's role for the Golden Bears this spring. After a hot start to the season, White hit a wall in conference play and struggled to find any consistency. White has premium stuff with a 92-95 mph fastball and a plus slider in the low-80s with downward bite. He also has a top-to-bottom, upper-70s curveball that gets swings and misses and a fading mid-80s changeup that is a usable fourth pitch. While White has plenty of stuff, his short, thick frame and high-effort delivery lead to scattered control and inconsistency from start to start, or even inning to inning. He misses bats when he's in the strike zone, but often isn't in the strike zone enough. He does display toughness and the ability to rebound from ugly innings. White's loud stuff and below-average control project best in a bullpen. He projects to be taken in the middle of the draft's second day.
