Seo is a 6-foot-1, 175-pound righthander and the younger brother of MJ Seo, who was a prospect in the 2023 class and now pitches for Wichita State. Minjae is more advanced than his older brother at the same age. He drives down the rubber nicely and has a fast arm that comes from a three-quarters slot with some effort and head whack in his finish. Seo throws his fastball in the low 90s, but has touched 95 and has the spin and movement characteristics that allow the pitch to play up. It’s a hoppy heater that generates lots of swing-and-miss at the top of the zone. His go-to secondary is a slurvy slider in the upper 70s. It has lots of gloveside sweeping life and looks like it could become an above-average offering in the future as he learns to throw the pitch with more power and intent. Seo is mostly a fastball/breaking ball pitcher now, but he does have a low-80s changeup that he’ll mix in occasionally. He has below-average control and will need to improve to avoid profiling as a reliever. Seo is committed to Florida and will be 19 on draft day—making him a draft-eligible sophomore if he makes it to campus.

Seo’s older brother, M.J. Seo, was in the 2023 high school class and is now a righthander at LSU. Minjae is a Florida commit with a fast arm. He pitches in the low 90s and has reached the mid 90s with a lively fastball that he has located well in outings this summer. Seo shows feel to spin a slider that has become his go-to secondary pitch, and while he has shown a promising changeup in the past, he hasn’t thrown it as much this summer.
