This season the versatile southpaw has been used to start games, close games and everything in between. Against Wake, Dorsey got the start in the series' second game and attacked the zone with primarily a 92-94 mph fastball that touched 95 and a low-80s slider. He has a funky look with a deep arm path that straightens back into a high release point. There’s effort and deception in his over-the-top delivery and he’s an especially tough matchup against same-sided batters. His fastball spins very efficiently (96-98%) in the mid-2400 rpm range which enables it to ride with an IVB of 18-21” and go above bats for swing/miss. His 81-84 mph slider spun with similar rpm and also generated swing/miss down in the zone. Dorsey also mixed an occasional 74-78 mph curve and subtracted spin (1590-1715 rpm) low-80s changeup. Overall, the 6-foot-2 lefty was strong throughout his six inning start, accumulating 11 strikeouts against just one walk over 98 pitches. There is no such thing as a guaranteed big leaguer from the draft, but college left handers who have good control and strong strikeout rates tend to have a high rate of success. For me, Dorsey is a good bet to become a big leaguer in some capacity. If I were still an area scout he would slot in the 4th to 6th round on my draft pref list.
The 17th round draft pick of the Texas Rangers in 2022, the 6-foot-3 slender-bodied lefty led the Florida JUCO ranks with 122 strikeouts last spring. From an over the top slot Dorsey produces swing/miss stuff with his low-90s riding fastball and a hard, sharp 79-81 mph curve.
6’3” 160 lbs. Long/athletic frame w/ projection FB up to 92 mph. Deceptive, getting on hitters late. SL flashed 1/7 shape w/ slurve action - swing/miss at 2405 rpm 6 K’s over 3 IP FB: 89-91 T92 SL: 77-78 CH: 80-81

Arm Action: LH. 3/4 slot. Long arm back and fast out front.
FB: T87, 83-86 mph. Natural arm side run. Tails off late.
