Chris McMahon - Prospect Profile

MLB.com - May : "He knows how to spin a breaking ball, but it gets caught in between being a curve and slider, looking more like the former. He has a very good feel for his changeup that can miss bats and get ground-ball outs. When he's on, McMahon combines athleticism, stuff, feel for pitching and command to make him a complete package."

Carlos Collazo - Baseball America - May 13th: "Some scouts have the slider as his better offspeed offering, calling it a plus breaking ball, while others are high on a changeup that gets plus grades as well. He pulls the string with that pitch and induces whiffs and ground balls from hitters of both sides."

Ian Smith - Prospect 365 - Apr. 26th: "At 6-foot-2 with a very repeatable windup and delivery, McMahon flashes an exciting three pitch mix that all possess above-average-or-better qualities. His fastball sits in the mid-90s with heavy arm side run."

Athlon Sports - Mar. 10th: "McMahon has one of the better changeups around as well as a solid fastball. After a modest role as a freshman, he stepped up to be Miami’s Saturday starter in 2019."

Carlos Collazo - Baseball America - Jan. 31st : "It’s a true swing-and-miss pitch that also generates a number of ground balls, and his fastball is regularly in the mid 90s. "
