Overall: Luis Gutierrez is a Venezuelan lefty signed by the Padres as part of their 2019 J2 class. He's a pitchability arm with clean, sound mechanics and good feel for his secondaries. The undersized left-hander lives in the 80s with the fastball, touching 89 with the ability to spot the fastball inside and out. His ability to spin a breaking ball and feel for a changeup set him apart from other hurlers his age though. He should add a few ticks to the fastball as he matures, and he will need it to have a future in the rotation.
