Scouting report

Slaten signed for about $200,000 under slot in the third round, then proceeded to light up radar guns in the 2019 Northwest League and look like a steal almost immediately. He was sitting 92-97 there and flashed a plus, two-plane, sweeping breaking ball and tailing changeup. That slider has solidified as a plus offering if not better, and is so gross that John Waters wants to make a movie about it. Like many other arms in this system, Slaten has a violent delivery that creates injury concern and relief risk, but he could work in high leverage situations if he ends up there since he'd likely enjoy a velo spike in shorter outings. His A-ball assignment was a little tepid to start 2021 but he's likely to wrap the year at Double-A.
