WTM’S PIRATE PLAYER PROFILES

Waguespeck had a big junior year, with a 1.83 ERA in 55.1 innings, along with 73 strikeouts. That gained the attention of Ole Miss, where he is currently signed to attend. He has good command of his fastball and breaking ball, throwing both for strikes. He throws his fastball in the mid-to-upper 80s, topping out at 90.  He’s got loose arm action and throws on a downhill plane. The arm action, plus his size, gives him the chance to add velocity as he fills out. He doesn’t spin his curve or slider that well. He is expected to honor his commitment to Ole Miss.
