Carson Frome is a 2028 RHP/OF from North (IN) with a lean, projectable 5-foot-10, 140-pound frame and a delivery built around easy effort. He works from an overhead pump into a tall lift, creating quality hip-to-shoulder separationfor his age that allows a long, uninterrupted arm path to work into a 3/4 slot. The fastball sits 78–80 mph, T81, showing feel, carry, and arm-side run. His 65–68 mph curveball flashes slurvey shape, and he also spins a 63–65 mph sweeping slider that will need to tighten. The changeup (68–69 mph) shows promising heavy fade, rounding out a four-pitch mix with upside. With physical growth and continued development, Frome is a young arm to keep tabs on in Indiana’s 2028 class.
