    View Draft Report
    Kilian was a 20th round pick of the Orioles in 2018 as a draft-eligible sophomore after a strong season where he earned a spot in an injury-plagued Texas Tech rotation by necessity and quickly proved he belonged. A year later, he’s much of the same player. He is a sum-of-the-parts pitcher with solid but unspectacular stuff that works because of location and feel. His low-90s fastball, curveball and changeup are all average pitches, with the curveball playing up a tick because of his ability to locate it. Kilian was 8-3, 3.89 with 7.7 strikeouts per nine and 2.0 walks per nine.
