View Draft Report
Culbertson has been a three-year contributor for Arkansas State, spending most of his time in the Red Wolves rotation. He has plenty of arm strength, but the results haven't always matched his stuff. He can sit 94-96 mph as a starter and has touched 98-100 out of the bullpen. Culbertson doesn't miss all that many bats (48 strikeouts in 50 innings this year), but his cutter and changeup both show flashes of being at least average pitches. They and his slider and curve are all generally below-average, but his velocity and potential make him a modest risk with potentially a big payoff.
