View Draft Report
A lefthander/first baseman in high school, Valadez-Acuna will focus on pitching in pro ball. The 6-foot lefthander has a high-spin, big 76-78 mph curveball that he shows some feel for locating. He pairs it with an 87-91 mph fastball that has touched 93-94 at its best. Valadez-Acuna is relatively filled out already. He’s a Texas Tech commit.
