bmags Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 From law: Taylor is a draft-eligible sophomore who was just OK as a 20-year-old reliever last spring for LSU but was dominant on the Cape as a starter. Unfortunately, his elbow blew right before the season started and he required Tommy John surgery. On the Cape he was 92-94 mph, touching 97 mph, with a hammer curveball as his out pitch, lacking a third option, and he threw far more strikes than he had in the spring. He’s more of a wild card than the rest of the college TJ guys, since we just got a brief taste of what he might look like as a starter.

GreenSox Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 An injured player is one thing. A reach is another. And then there is reaching for an injured pitcher. Quite the daily double. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Just want to be clear that this is actually an upside pick for the upside boys. But I liked getting Whitmans plus control. I’m sure he goes to Cleveland and finds 5 more mph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxfest Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 (edited) This is worse than Burdi pick years ago…..abysmal. Not even ranked in top 100 Edited July 10, 2023 by Soxfest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polar Bear Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 I'm not hating this one as much. Already got the TJS out of the way. Great 4 pitch mix. 4 borderline plus pitches 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not even ranked in top 100 Keith law had him in his, as did BA. He was also going to be a starter, and had been in the summer and fall before blowing it out in the spring (winter?)

Buehrle>Wood Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 I like what I'm reading for pick 52, but obviously limited info. TJS out of the way is only a plus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great 4 pitch mix. 4 borderline plus pitches I don’t really like the injured pitcher picks. We’ve had quite a few of the 10% who don’t work out so we’ll after surgery. I’m sure he’ll fine but it’s just not my thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCalChiSox Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 This guy actually seems like he has some real upside...hopefully he develops a third pitch and is OK post surgery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
