Beam established himself as one of college baseball’s most reliable starting pitchers in his first two seasons with Tennessee. In 32 starts and 160.1 innings, the 6-foot-4, 208-pound righthander posted a 3.20 ERA with a 22.5% strikeout rate and 6.7% walk rate. He has a starter’s frame and deep pitch mix that includes five different pitches, though he primarily relies on a fastball, curveball and changeup. He averages 93-94 mph on the fastball and has been up to 98 and he does an excellent job moving the pitch around the zone to set up the rest of his arsenal. His 78-82 mph curveball is his go-to swing and miss pitch and has above-average potential, as does his mid-80s changeup. Beam has also mixed in a slider and a cutter. He has a prototypical starter build and above-average command that should make him one of the safer college pitching options in the 2024 class.
