Carmen Mlodzinski - Prospect Profile

<MLB.com - May : "Mlodzinski sat at 92-96 mph with his fastball on the Cape and touched 99 during fall practice, and his heater also features some sink and run. He flashed a plus curveball in high school but has scrapped that for a low-80s slider with power and depth that sometimes morphs into a cutter."

Carlos Collazo - Baseball America - May 13th: "Teams expected Mlodzinski to miss more bats this spring. He sat in the 92-94 mph range and showed 96 and 97 at times, but the pitch is a heavy sinking fastball that generates tons of ground balls. It wasn’t a pitch that generated whiff after whiff up in the zone."

Ian Smith - Prospect 365 - Apr. 26th: "The sinker hovers around 95-98 mph and generates a ton of soft contact. Both the slider and cutter have flashed plus at times, but it’s hard for me to label either with a grade higher than 55 presently."

Dan Zielinki - Baseball Prospect Journal - Mar. 22nd: "Carmen Mlodzinski missed most of last season with a broken foot but thrived in the Cape Cod League. The 6-2, 232-pound right-hander has the intangibles to be a future top-of-the-rotation arm."

Keith Law - The Athletic - Mar. 16th: "He has a short arm stroke that gives him deception but will likely be tough to repeat."

Athlon Sports - Mar. 10th: "...he came out in the summer in the Cape Cod League and showed everyone what he could do — keep hitters off balance with a mid-90s fastball and a biting slider."
