Strikeout-heavy righty with size and upside, but durability is the question
McCaslin is a 6-foot-4, 225-pound right-handed pitcher who showed real bat-missing ability as a freshman in 2023, striking out 41 hitters in 35 innings while holding opponents to a .193 average. He followed that with a redshirt 2024 season after an injury, though he flashed again in a brief outing before exiting with another injury. The appeal is the arm talent: enough velocity to project, a starter’s frame, and a track record of winning innings when healthy. The caveat is straightforward—his fit depends on whether he can stay on the mound consistently.
