One of the most talented lefthanded pitchers in the class, Hachman has now stuff and the sort of physical projection that allows scouts to dream of even more coming in the future. A 6-foot-5, 210-pound southpaw, Hachman has missed time in high school because of an elbow injury, but in 2022 made his way back to the mound and eventually made USA Baseball’s 18U National Team, where he served as a high-octane reliever and struck out nine batters in 3.2 innings. He changed his arm action early this spring which led to less impressive pure stuff and his season was eventually cut short due to a torn ulnar collateral ligament. When healthy, Hachman has shown some of the most electric pure stuff in the class. He pitches in the low 90s, but has been up to 98 mph and his fastball is a high-spin offering with tons of riding action as well. He has a breaking ball that varies between a hard slider and a power curve, and the pitch has flashed plus at times, but it has always been inconsistent and in 2023 it looked well below-average at times. He’s thrown a changeup with solid diving life that could become a viable third offering with more reps. Hachman has always been an erratic strike-thrower and that, plus his injury status, makes him a high-risk prospect. He’s committed to Arkansas.
