As a freshman, nobody would have envisioned Simeon Woods-Richardson would make it to the big leagues. Standing 5’4” and weighing 125-pounds, the right-hander wasn’t exactly an imposing presence on the mound, and his low-to-mid-70s fastball wasn’t exactly lighting up the radar gun. Between 2014 and 2015, his freshman and sophomore years, he underwent a massive growth spurt, to the point that his coaches did not even recognize him.
