With the 34th pick in the 2020 MLB Draft, the San Diego Padres selected Justin Lange, a right0handed pitcher out of Llano High School in Llano, Texas. He is currently committed to play collegiately at Dallas Baptist University
The 18-year old is one of the most athletic pitchers in this draft class at 6’4 and 220 pounds. Here are his strengths as a prospect from lastwordonbaseball.com:
“Lange’s strongest asset is his fastball/slider combination. Scouts grade his fastball as a 70/80. It typically sits in the 94-95 MPH range, but he has the ability to touch 100 MPH.
