That said, the control and command right now are below average. Brecht has a chance to possess an elite fastball and two plus-or-better breaking balls. He’ll also throw a traditional curveball extremely hard in the mid-80s. He’ll mix in an absolutely disgusting slider with immense depth, inducing gaudy swing-and-miss numbers. It’s a metric-monster of a heater and is only reinforced by the elite whiff rates he generates off the pitch. Brecht has been up to 101, sitting 97-99 in starts. I think most would agree Brecht has the most electric fastball in the 2024 class at least at this early stage. If you were to build a Mount Rushmore for the best pure stuff college baseball has ever seen, there’s a very real argument that Brecht would deserve to be on it. That said, he’s still very young and has plenty of time to shore up those issues with time and repetition. Caglianone is a legitimate pitching prospect, though there is a bit of reliever risk due to command concerns and his ability to repeat his operation deep into starts.
There’s also a changeup, though it lags a bit. On the mound, he’s been up to 99 and will flash an above average slider that’s really come on of late. Caglianone is an average runner and is likely destined for first base as a pro, but this is an impact bat with 40-homerun upside if the hit tool allows the game power to play all the way up the development ladder. His approach at the plate is sound and while there’s still some polish ahead of him in terms of pure bat-to-ball skills, the organic physical ability here is reasonably unprecedented. Offensively he possesses immense hand and bat speed allowing the 6-foot-5-inch lefty to get into double-plus raw power.
