Adam Mazur

Mazur checks a lot of boxes dynasty-league managers look for in pitching prospects. He throws a ton of strikes (walk rates below five percent at every stop) and has a full starter's pitch mix. Mazur was a projectable college starter when he was drafted out of Iowa in 2022, as he was 6-foot-2, 180 pounds and had room to put on good weight, and now Mazur's fastball sits at 95 mph. His changeup and slider will each flash plus, and if he continues on his current trajectory, he could surpass even a mid-rotation starter projection. The Padres all of a sudden have some rotation depth, with Jhony Brito and Randy Vasquez waiting for opportunities, but Mazur seems like the most likely of the Padres' Double-A arms to reach the majors this summer.
