Scouting report

Though none of them are plus, Elder has four pitches and precise command of two of them. His fastball sits 90-92 and has heavy, grounder-inducing sink, while his most-used secondary is a curt, mid-80s slider. That's not his best secondary, though. Elder's changeup, when located, has enough fade to miss lefty bats, though his feel for the release of it is less consistent than it is with his fastball and slider. He also has a slow, shapely curveball that has utility as a first-pitch offering. His stuff and track record of strike-throwing at Texas suggest he's a high-probability depth starter who needs to have a little velo bump to entrench himself in a rotation.
