2021 Standout
 |
Simon Lusignan RHP / De Mortagne, QC / 2021Rankings OverallRank: 22 / POS: 9
Making his debut with Team Canada, RHP Simon Lusignan (2021) is quickly emerging as one of the best pitchers in the country and remains uncommitted. Standing at 6-foot-5, 190-pounds, Lusignan has a very projectable, loose frame with further room to develop. It’s a very athletic and smooth delivery that stays on line effectively. He has been up to 91 miles per hour with his fastball this year with command. There is present arm speed and with his athleticism, a jump in velocity is likely. His off speed continues to develop with his slider showing some late bite. He has shown some feel for the pitch and it can progress into a true strikeout pitch. Lusignan has a lot of upside and this trip will be a good test to see how he battles against pro competition.
