2023 Diamondbacks Reviews: #27 Luis Frías

In last year’s player review I was quite vocal on Luis Frías: the way he was pitching, he could go anywhere but the MLB. We already mentioned that a long heard criticism about Luis Frías is that he is more of a thrower than a pitcher: having high velocity on your fastball is one thing, commanding it and supplement it with some good secondary offerings is a whole different thing.

Problem with Frías here has been his late turn-around to pitching, although looking at the age at which kids from the Dominican sign for a professional baseball team you’d tend to say late is never too late.
