Is their data available on Eyanson, Anderson , Cowan and Evans’ spin rates?

I’d love to compare the top pitchers spin rates against the bottom.
LSU has some big arms at the bottom of the pen but they continue to get knocked around a lot. The lack of movement as the ball approaches the zone seems to be killing theses pitchers. Whereas LSU’s top pitching create MLB level movement through the zone.
Is spin rate the issue with some of the pitchers with tremendous potential but down in the depth chart?

I think the issue is that they have not developed reliable 2nd and 3rd pitches, and also struggle with control in some cases. That's more about release point, concentration, and even where you stand on the rubber sometimes.

Yeah, I don’t doubt the challenge is multifaceted, not just spin rate. I guess it’s analogous to driving a golf ball. I can drive a golf ball 300 yards on a warm dry day but keeping it in the fairway on a consistent basis is a different matter. So many variables.
