Cam Caminiti makes Keith Law's Top 100 Prospects List
"continued to show premium stuff in his pro debut while throwing strikes and limiting hard contact in Low A."
"sits 92-95 already from a low three-quarters slot with a plus changeup that hitters whiffed on half the time they swung at it."
"now more of a sweeper, missing some bats in the zone but not generating a lot of chase: it grades out as a 55 or 60 on paper, and I've had scouts come in anywhere from average to plus, but right now it plays more average with hitters."
"passed the biggest test for high school pitchers surviving the first year of pro ball without injury, and if that continues he'll be one of the top lefties in the minors by next spring."
Cam Caminiti showed premium stuff in his professional debut, throwing strikes and limiting hard contact in Low A. He commands a 92–95 mph fastball from a low three-quarters slot and pairs it with a plus changeup that induced whiffs on roughly half of swings. His breaking ball has evolved into a sweeper that misses some bats but does not generate much chase and currently plays around average. His low slot and mound landing help the sweeper work better against left-handed hitters. He completed his first pro season healthy and projects as a top lefty in the minors if he remains healthy.
