Episode Details

Ethan Grindlinger, a 17-year-old left-handed phenom, is the Phillies top draft pick for 2026. Standing at 63 and 185 lbs, he plays outfield and pitches, with a fastball in the mid-nineties. His draft stock is uncertain, with scouts debating his best role between pitching and hitting. If he hits, he could be a solid number two starter; if he plays outfield, he shows pro-level plate discipline and contact, but his bat speed might trade power for contact. The Phillies could secure this grinder for a decade, depending on his final draft stock.
