Draft Prospects

School: Archbishop Spalding HS, Severn, Md. Commit/Drafted: Maryland
Age At Draft: 18.4
Yeager has a solid pitcher’s frame at 6-foot-4, 195 pounds and has shown some velocity and athleticism on the mound. Despite his tall frame and a three-quarters slot, Yeager throws from a lower release height thanks to solid extension down the mound and a drop-and-drive delivery. He pitches in the 89-92 mph range with his fastball and has been up to 95 and has shown solid feel to snap off a spike-curveball around 80 mph that features late glove-side biting action at its best. Yeager’s control needs to improve, but his solid package of size and stuff could be appealing for teams who believe he has more velocity in the tank. He’s committed to Maryland.
