Houston Astros pitching prospect Adrian Chaidez has done nothing but impress at High-A this season. The reliever has struck out batters with ease while posting a well-below-average walk rate. He had the best outing of his young career last week, striking out nine batters through six perfect innings in his first pro start. Chaidez throws a fastball that registers in the mid-to-upper-90s on the radar gun. The pitch has good spin and blatant vertical break. Additionally, the right-hander offers a sweeping slider in the low-80s. It will be interesting to see if he can develop a tertiary offering in the minors. If he does, Chaidez might be able to progress as a starter. Otherwise, he could be destined for the bullpen, albeit in a role that gives him longer outings. Regardless, his staggering strikeout-to-walk ratio will give him fantasy upside when he makes it to the majors someday.--Andersen Pickard - RotoBallerRead More News
