One of the main attractions in 2020's all-too-short college baseball season was Texas A&M star pitcher and lefthander Asa Lacy. A potential top pick in this year's draft, Lacy has climbed draft boards since his arrival at A&M in the fall of 2017.
In this Driveline Player Profile, we'll take a closer look at Lacy's success
Much, much more at the link.Quote:
With added velocity and a more complete arsenal, Lacy's abbreviated 2020 performance was in a class of its own, posting an excellent 0.75 ERA (1.57 FIP) in 24 innings, while striking out half the batters he faced (a 15% increase from his sophomore year). He also slashed his BB% from 11.6% in 2019 to 8.6%, and limited batters to a .177 wOBA against.
Texas A&M fans and scouts may have missed out on witnessing another career year from Lacy, but we can look at his pitch metrics more closely to evaluate what contributed to his dominant rise in the SEC.
