    View Draft Report
    A 6-foot-5, 215-pound lefthander, LaSorsa was a reliable reliever for St. John’s for two years before making a successful transition to the starting rotation this spring. Over 86.2 innings and 14 starts this spring, LaSorsa has led the team with a 1.66 ERA while striking out 67 batters and walking 33. LaSorsa has a fringe-average fastball, but gets good angle on the pitch and has a feel for locating his secondaries. He could be used in a variety of roles at the next level, but might get a chance to start after his successful 2019 season.
