Nice card!!
Hes a top-10 prospect within the organization, Keith Law just ranked him #92 overall on his top 100 prospects list. Heres what he wrote: Swagerty was a two-pitch reliever at Arizona State who became a scouts' favorite for his high-energy style and aggressive approach to attacking hitters. Since then, he has showed four pitches all projecting as average or better and now projects as a potential mid-rotation starter who could always return to the pen if he can't handle the workload. Swagerty sits at 90-94 mph with that same out-pitch breaking ball he showed in college, but his changeup is improving with use and he has the feel to mix up all four offerings, throwing any pitch in any count, all of them for strikes. He's tall enough to get plane on the fastball, but his frame isn't broad like most workhorse starters', so there's still some skepticism about his ability to handle 180-plus innings, and he'll need to get left-handers out more consistently. He's strong and athletic with feel, and I hate consigning guys with all of that and at least three pitches to the bullpen, especially since that will always be there as a fallback option if starting doesn't work out.
