Michael Cederoth's Player Profile

Fastball – There are some hard throwers in this class, but no starter in the collegiate ranks throws harder than Cederoth, sitting at 95-97 and reaching triple digits at times.

Slider – Cederoth’s slider is good enough to keep hitters off balance in the Mountain West Conference, but it only flashes as an average offering at the next level as it doesn’t have much bite and it’s rarely in the strike zone.

Change– It’s more than just a show-me pitch, but it’s not much more as Cederoth doesn’t command the pitch well at all and there’s little movement.

Command – Cederoth simply doesn’t command his secondary stuff well enough right to project as a starter at this point, and his arm action screams high leverage reliever as well, with the arm trailing the body and there’s a bit of an inverted elbow action as well.
