View Draft Report
Kroeger is a 6-foot-1, 190-pound righthander who’s old for the class and will already be 24 on draft day. He spent five years with Maryville as a starter and reliever and had his best season this spring when he posted a 3.18 ERA over 90.2 innings and 16 starts with 117 strikeouts and 32 walks. Kroeger is a fastball-dominant pitcher who used his 88-91 mph fastball more than 60% of the time this spring, though he’s also shown some feel for a mid-70s curveball and a low-80s changeup that he consistently puts on the arm-side rail of the plate.
