Scouting report

Gaddis' changeup grip and release is similar to Devin Williams', and the pitch sometimes has more than 15 mph of velocity separation from his fastball, which now resides in the mid-90s at peak, but was down in the low-90s in 2020. The changeup is his best pitch, and disappears beneath the bats of right-handed hitters when he releases it right. Gaddis can also create bat-missing depth on his slider, though it isn't quite as consistent. He has a viable starter's three-pitch mix, but the relative stiffness in his delivery, which includes a pretty violent head whack, pushes him toward a multi-inning relief role for me.
