We continue our Unheralded Prospect Series with left-handed starter Leo Crawford. Now, just looking at statistics is something you can’t do when considering Crawford. He is one of the funnest pitchers to watch in person or even on video.
He’s not blessed with a high-90s fastball is an artist on the mound. He uses deception, some craftiness, and a great changeup to get batters out.
Some Background
Born in Nicaragua in 1997, Crawford was signed by the Dodgers in 2014 as a 17-year-old. His first professional season was in the rookie league in the Dominican Republic in 2015.
