Scouting report

Woodford was a widely-known prep prospect because he was teammates with Kyle Tucker at Plant. He was a sandwich rounder who fell off our lists as his fastball velocity ticked down (he was 91-93, touch 95 around draft time, then 88-92 in the following few years). He had a 2019 resurgence, was added to the 40-man, and returned to the lower part of the Cardinals list. He's a kitchen sink righty with below average control, and is likely to be a long reliever/swingman type. Woodford's stuff is actually down slightly from last year, both in terms of his fastball velocity and the spin across all of his pitches. (Alternate site, MLB)
