The Red Sox have signed first-round draft pick Kyson Witherspoon for a $5MM bonus, less than the $5,114,200 slot value for the 15th overall pick. Witherspoon is recognized as the top college right-hander in this draft and was highly ranked by various scouting organizations. He possesses a fastball that can reach 99mph, a well-rated slider, and has potential with his curveball and changeup. His unique delivery contributes to effective pitch control, suggesting he could develop into a front-of-the-rotation starter.
Witherspoon's fastball can hit 99mph and regularly sits in the 95-97mph range, making it one of the standout pitches in his repertoire.
Witherspoon's slider received a 60-grade for its horizontal action and depth, capable of being thrown in the mid-80s to 91mph.
