Drafted in the 22nd round (663rd overall) by the Texas Rangers in 2008.
View Draft Report
Despite posting a team 5.12 ERA, Kansas State could have as many as six pitchers drafted, starting with righthander Trevor Hurley. Hurley never has posted an ERA below 5.03 in three seasons with the Wildcats, and had a career-worst 6.90 mark in 2008, but he has an 88-93 mph fastball and a hard slider. He also has a strong 6-foot-2, 209-pound frame and he's younger than most juniors at age 20, so he could add velocity. His mission in pro ball will be to improve his control. He walks too many batters and gets hit harder than he should.
