This Saturday afternoon look at Woodworth provided my first extended look at him on the mound since March of 2024. The talented righthander opened the game on the mound for Ventura and came out showing the strong three pitch arsenal that makes him a highly desirable arm to go with his intriguing righthanded hitting profile which both have performed at a high level over his four-year varsity career. Woodworth tossed three innings on the day featuring a FB which lived at 87-90 MPH while touching 91 MPH throughout his three innings of work and backed it up with a 76-79 MPH CB with an 11/5 shape flashing power down in the zone and feel for an intriguing 81-83 MPH CHG with heavy tumbling life (gives off a SPLT like feel). Early in the game Woodworth battled his front side working down the mound as it was flying open early effecting his control during the first inning, but the quality of his stuff and present physical strength allowed him to combat the mechanical flaw enough to overcome a trio of BBs to allow no runs while striking out two in the inning (including a backwards K on a well thrown CB with the bases loaded). His second inning was more consistent with his control and delivery landing closed with his front shoulder at foot strike and maintaining his direction into the glove, throwing the ball within the zone, but was touched for one run on a wild pitch around striking out two hitters in the inning. Woodworth closed the outing with a strong third inning mixing his CB/FB/CHG throughout the inning with aggressiveness into the zone for a scoreless frame and punched out two more hitters. On the day Woodworth struck out six in three innings, picked up whiffs on all three offerings, and displayed the ability to adjust within an outing to get stronger as he goes during a start.

One of the top uncommitted players in the state for the 2025 class, Woodworth has continually performed at a high level when I’ve seen him in person (5th live look in the last 12 months) as both a RH hitter and RH pitcher. The frame has continued to loosen up (Woodworth played TE for the VHS football team), but he is shaping well into a looser, more baseball looking body which is helping his actions as a position player. The swing is strength based for Woodworth with a quality turn and sequences well with his body while working uphill through the zone with his bat path. Woodworth has shown a quality approach over the multiple looks staying within the strike zone on his swing decisions (5 BB / 5 Ks on spring so far) with a solid feel for his barrel (minimal whiff) and appears able to recognize spin out of the zone well. He can go line to line with hard impact and has adjustability to work to different quadrants of the strike zone for contact. Woodworth posted another multiple hit day including a solid single to RF on a down and away pitch to drive a run. His actions moving around at 3B looked noticeably more comfortable and the arm is looser/cleaner when throwing with solid accuracy to his throws.

Physical, athletic two-way/two-sport standout who missed significant time in JR. year with an unfortunate injury showed his stuff is still strong with an intriguing offensive profile. At the plate there is strength in the swing path with solid present bat speed and Woodworth drilled a drive to RCF at Ventura HS showing his all-fields power potential (was robbed on a spectacular play by the Saugus RF). As well, came on in the 7th showing the arm potential is still there with his FB working 88-90 MPH while touching 91 MPH in his first game outing in almost nine months while dropping in a power CB in the 76-79 MPH range picking up one K with four whiffs from the Saugus hitters. Control was not polished, but he was around the zone with his FB misses and should improve as he gets more comfortable pitching in game again.
