Futrell is a projection lefthander who comes out of the same American Heritage High program in Plantation, Fla., that produced first-rounder Triston Casas in 2018. Futrell is more of a projection prospect than Casas and not near his first-round pedigree, but scouts are excited about his upside potential from the left side. He mostly threw in the upper 80s last summer and while he’s trended in the right direction in terms of his velocity this spring, evaluators are still projecting an average fastball. With a 6-foot-5, 195-pound frame that has plenty of room for additional strength, he should be able to get there and is impressively synced up for how tall and lanky he is. Futrell will throw multiple pitches for strikes and has shown a slider, curveball and changeup. He is committed to Vanderbilt, and could be a tough sign given his lack of impact stuff now, but is a candidate to make huge strides over the next few years.
