Drafted in the C-A round (53rd overall) by the Texas Rangers in 2012 (signed for $975,000).
View Draft Report
After producing perhaps the best crop of draft talent in state talent a year ago, Kansas may not have a player drafted in the first 10 rounds in 2012. The Sunflower State's top prospect is Wiles, a Vanderbilt recruit who is considered all but unsignable and likely will slide in the draft. He's extremely projectable at 6-foot-4 and 180 pounds, and his athleticism and clean delivery allow him to command three pitches. He currently deals his fastball at 86-88 mph and tops out at 90, and he should sit comfortably in the low 90s once he fills out. He also has a promising slider and advanced feel for a changeup.
