TRACK RECORD: Medina separated himself as Venezuela’s top pitcher in the 2019 international class and signed with the Padres for $700,00 on July 2. His expected pro debut in 2020 was delayed by the coronavirus pandemic, but he took the mound at instructional league and impressed as one of the youngest players on the Padres roster.
SCOUTING REPORT: Medina already boasts loud stuff at 18 years old and has the athleticism, arm speed and physicality to continue adding velocity. His fastball comfortably sits 92-94 mph, touches 95, and some observers think he’ll throw 100 mph in the future as he fills out and gets stronger. Medina’s slider shows excellent spin characteristics and flashes above-average with sharp bite, and he also shows feel for a changeup with late fade. Medina has an energetic delivery and will overthrow and lose the strike zone at times, but he’s a plus athlete who should make adjustments as he matures.
THE FUTURE: Medina’s arm strength and athleticism hold a lot of promise. He is set to make his professional debut in 2021.
