正式入札以後，朗希在2024年跟2025年的大聯盟官網國際業餘新秀榜上都是第一名


他的球探報告

Scouting grades: Fastball: 70 | Slider: 55 | Splitter: 70 | Control: 60 | Overal
l: 65

When it was reported that Sasaki would be posting to come to join the Major Leag
ue Baseball ranks, it created the kind of buzz not seen since fellow Japanese st
ar Shohei Ohtani came over in December of 2017. MLB teams have been waiting for
the chance to sign the talented right-hander since he burst on the global scene
and showcased his elite stuff in the World Baseball Classic at age 19.

Whenever Sasaki signs with a team, he’ll automatically become the best pitching
 prospect in all of baseball, with the potential to have three plus pitches with
 plus command and control. His heater has been up to 102 mph in the past and ave
raged 98.8 mph in 2023 with arm-side run, though there was a little concern with
 a small dip in velocity (96.8 mph average) last season, and some scouts said it
 was a little straighter compared with the ’23 version. Sasaki’s splitter is v
irtually unhittable, thrown in the 88-90 mph range. It’s a spin-killer and look
s like his fastball coming out of his hand, an offspeed offering that produced a
 57.1 percent whiff rate in 2024. His slider is his third pitch, but it’s an ab
ove-average to plus offering that also misses a ton of bats.

Sasaki comes to Major League Baseball with a career 2.0 BB/9 rate, and he can la
nd all three of his pitches in the zone consistently. The only concern at all co
mes over the slight drop in velocity and overall stuff in 2024, but even if that
’s a new normal, it gives him frontline starter stuff ready for a big league ro
tation immediately.

評價非常高

不管跟哪隊簽都會成為目前全聯盟的最佳投手新秀，三種球路都有plus潛力，搭配plus級的
command跟control

隱憂是今年球季球速跟stuff下滑，不過即使這樣的狀況是朗希的新常態，他還是有著前段
輪值水準的stuff，並且已經準備好進大聯盟輪值
