Christian Lim brings swing-and-miss upside and Friday-night poise to Stanford’s staff
Lim has already shown he can miss bats at a high level, posting 86 strikeouts in 77 freshman innings in 2024 and following with a solid 2025 campaign that included quality starts against ACC and ranked opponents; he entered 2026 as a Perfect Game preseason top-101 sophomore. His profile is built on a starter’s mix of competitiveness, strike-throwing growth, and the ability to work deep enough into games to matter, with Stanford noting multiple quality outings and a dominant shutout effort at Cal State Fullerton. For a team, he looks like a high-upside lefty who can anchor a rotation if command keeps sharpening.
