Reggie Lawson

26. Reggie Lawson, RHP (‘19 Midseason Rank – 37)
Age: 22
2019 Highest Level: AA
2019 Stats: 5.20 ERA, 1.48 WHIP, 36 K,13 BB, 27.2 IP
Injuries have derailed the 2016 draftee, but his stuff still remains. A lost year in 2019 means that he will come with a lot of risk, but he had a nice AFL showing so perhaps he can get healthy. If he does he has nasty stuff and middle of the rotation type of potential. Here’s to hoping for a healthy 2020. ETA: 2021

Michael (San Diego):
- Reggie Lawson: More career starts in the Don Welke Classic, or starts in MLB games?
Kyle Glaser: I do think he will make more than two starts in the major leagues, so MLB is the answer there.

While Gore and Luis Patiño understandably get the lion’s share of attention among the pitchers still awaiting their debuts, they are joined in the clubhouse by two other starters yet to make the 40-man roster who also logged time in Amarillo last year. Reggie Lawson missed much of the season with an elbow strain that was treated with PRP and stem cells, but finished strong in instructs and a brief Arizona Fall League stint. While he’s still not throwing his slider, the big righty is working in live BP and sim game situations with the rest of his repertoire. Like Gore and Patiño, he’ll be slow-played early in camp as he builds up stamina for a full year of pitching.

Right-handed pitching prospect Reggie Lawson, who underwent Tommy John surgery last March, is throwing bullpen sessions, though using his fastball almost exclusively, Tingler said. Lawson isn't far from joining pitchers' fielding practice, and a first-half return seems likely, barring any setbacks. Lawson would presumably open the season in the Minors, but he could serve as valuable starting depth down the road.

If our luck continues the way it’s been Lawson will stay healthy and become a rotation option and Espinoza will catch a break and become a dominant reliever along with Castillo.
Could you imagine?

Lawson ... Espinosa .... Thompson ... Castillo. Four high upside prospects beset by injuries.
Given the Padres have great depth for the next 3 seasons in SP (pray no injuries) .... we may see them first as RP (long and short) in 2022. All four have been mentioned as pen options based on their “stuff”. Padres pen looks to be ready for some turnover next season.

From today's DFR ...
Reggie Lawson took another step forward in his return from Tommy John surgery. The talented 23-year-old righthander threw two spotless innings, recording a pair of strikeouts and needing just 25 pitches to stifle a talented Naturals lineup. Lawson’s future may ultimately be in the bullpen, but the stuff plays.

From today's DFR ...
Reggie Lawson had a rough go in his third outing of the year, failing to make it out of the first inning. The big righty, coming back from Tommy John surgery last April, opened the game by walking the first two Naturals hitters and then giving up a homer to Royals prospect Nick Pratto. After allowing a double, he struck out two in a row before giving way. Lawson threw just 16 of his 31 pitches for strikes and got only three swinging strikes. He’ll likely get a chance to push his pitch count up in July.
