School: Florida State Drafted/Committed: Never Drafted
Age At Draft: 22.6
Volini started his career at South Florida, where he largely pitched from the bullpen and missed his 2023 sophomore season due to Tommy John surgery. He transferred to Florida State for his redshirt junior campaign in 2025 and pitched to a 3.50 ERA with 105 strikeouts to 25 walks over 87.1 innings, all of which marked career bests. Volini is a large and filled-out lefthander with a 6-foot-4, 250-pound frame. He’s a command-over-stuff pitcher with impressive feel for a four-pitch mix. Volini offers a fastball around 90 mph that will bump 93, an upper-70s curveball, a low-80s slider and a mid-80s changeup—which was his most-used secondary offering. Volini will already be 22 years old on draft day but brings a starter’s profile and impressive performance which could make him a target inside the first 10 rounds.
