Drafted in the 13th round (401st overall) by the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2019 (signed for $125,000).
View Draft Report
Cantleberry has started nine games so far and has benefitted from his improving control. His walks per nine has continued to drop since transferring from San Jacinto Junior College. The lefthander works from an overhand delivery and aggressively attacks hitters inside. His fastball tops out at 91 mph and he throws an average curveball in the upper 70s. He also has shown feel for an improving changeup. Even with a solid three-pitch mix, scouts wonder if the effort in his delivery and his 6-foot-1, 180-pound frame make him more suitable for the bullpen.
