"Antonio spent the year with Augusta, though fully in a starter role, and broke out. He pitched to a 4.15 ERA and 1.25 WHIP with 95 strikeouts to 36 walks over 93.1 innings. He was Augusta's best starter this year as he continued to create ground balls, but started to miss bats. His 9.2 K/9 was almost three better than his previous career high of 6.4 from 2023."
"In fact until he struggled a bit in his final two starts, he had a 3.38 ERA and 1.16 WHIP - but it isn't a surprise as the 19-year-old was at 88 innings pitched by this time, way beyond his previous career high of 46.2 innings last year. Antonio is likely ticketed for Rome this year and a potential innings increase, which isn't a surprise since most expected him to end up there at some point in 2025."
"After signing Antonio spent 2023 in the DSL, mostly in relief, pitching to a 1.16 ERA and 0.94 WHIP with 22 strikeouts in 31 innings. While those numbers were dominant, it was the DSL and he didn't miss many bats. In 2024 he spent the year between Augusta and the FCL, pitching to a 4.05 ERA and 1.46 WHIP with 31 strikeouts in 46.2 innings, also more in relief."
Rayven Antonio signed for $10,000 as an international free agent in 2023. He spent 2023 in the DSL, mostly in relief, posting a 1.16 ERA, 0.94 WHIP and 22 strikeouts in 31 innings. In 2024 he split time between Augusta and the FCL, recording a 4.05 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 31 strikeouts in 46.2 innings while inducing ground balls. In 2025 Antonio worked exclusively as a starter at Augusta, compiling a 4.15 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 95 strikeouts over 93.1 innings with a 9.2 K/9. He added velocity to 98 MPH and a swing-and-miss slider, projecting to Rome and possibly Double-A by 2026.
