Drafted as a pitcher, some evaluators liked Lauridsen's bat more than his arm. A USC commit, he could be a tough sign for the Brewers, but the stuff on the mound is very intriguing.

His fastball has been up to 97 and, while it can have inconsistent shape, it will flash carry of up to 19 inches of induced vertical break. His curveball and slider are both interesting offerings that, like the fastball, show inconsistencies in their shapes. Lauridsen also mixes in a changeup that has the potential to be his best secondary down the road, though the feel for it is currently touch-and-go. 

The delivery is very clean, and Lauridsen generates a lot of extension without much effort. The pitch shapes would need to be cleaned up in pro ball, but he would be a very interesting arm to add to the system.
