Esker brings a physically imposing presence to the mound at 6-foot-6, 225 pounds, with a tight, tucked lift from the stretch. His arm works from a shouldery action into an over-the-top release. The fastball sits 78–79 mph (T79) and plays with carry (avg. 2019 rpm). His best secondary is a 67–69 mph curveball that shows two-plane shape and solid spin metrics (T2194 rpm). Esker also mixes in a 73–74 mph splitter that flashes sink. High-ceiling frame with potential for velocity jumps as he refines the delivery.
