PROSPECT: Will Schomberg, SP, Seattle Mariners
CURRENT LEVEL: High-A
2024 STATS: Five G, Five GS, 2-1, 24.0 IP, 3.00 ERA, 3.75 FIP, 11.25 K/9, 5.25 BB/9, 0.00 HR/9, 29.4% GB%, .259 BABIP
ANALYSIS: Schomberg signed with the Mariners as a non-drafted free agent out of Davidson in 2022 and is already making waves as an impactful prospect in the depths of the farm system. The right-handed hurler has flashed decent velocity with his fastball and gets good movement on his slider. One of his biggest weaknesses is allowing fly balls and other loud contact. In fact, he owns a measly 29.4 percent walk rate so far this season.
Masterful pitching performance from Will Schomberg.

This past week, Schomberg was quite effective. He tossed six full innings, allowing zero runs, zero hits, and just one walk. He also found the zone with regularity, finishing his day with double-digit strikeouts. If Schomberg can continue to grow his K/BB rate while keeping his ERA in check, he'll earn a promotion very quickly.
