Scouting report

Kremer showed a little bit of a velo bump in 2020, averaging 93 mph with his fastball (a mix of four- and two-seamers) after he sat 90-93 in the minors in 2019. I think Kremer’s curveball is going to be an early-count weapon rather than a put-away pitch, but I still consider it above-average because of its depth and bite. His little mid-80s cutter/slider is command-dependent, but I think he'll have above-average command. Yes, he had walk issues over a small 2020 big league sample, which were largely due to a single, meltdown outing. Remember that Kremer threw 60% of his fastballs in the strike zone in 2019, and I think his issues last year were just small sample noise. He executes his slider location enough that it’ll be effective. I think he'll eat a ton of innings thanks to his command and end up a 1.5 WAR-ish starter. (Alternate site, MLB)
