Taylor Clarke | Rank: 144 School: College of Charleston Year: Junior Position: RHP Age: 22 DOB: 5/13/1993 Bats: R Throws: R Height: 6'4" Weight: 190 lb. Previously Drafted: Never VIDEO Scouting grades: Fastball: 60 | Slider: 45 | Changeup: 50 | Control: 55 | Overall: 45 Clarke's college career was at a crossroads at Towson in 2013, when the Tigers announced plans to drop baseball and he required Tommy John surgery after hurting his elbow. Though Towson spared its program, Clarke decided to transfer to Charleston, where he has become one of the best pitchers in college baseball . He finished the 2015 regular season tied for first in victories (12) and ranked third in strikeouts (126), both school records. A redshirt junior, Clarke usually deals at 92-96 mph early in his starts and he's able to carry a low-90s fastball into the late innings. His fastball lacks life but still misses bats because his overhand delivery provides deception and downhill plane. He throws a ton of strikes and has a usable changeup, but Clarke's lack of a reliable breaking ball may relegate him to relieving in pro ball. His slurvy slider tops out at 81 without much bite and is often fringy at best. 2013年,Clarke的大學生涯走到十字路口,Towson Tigers宣布要停止棒球活動而Clarke自己 因肘傷需要動Tommy John.雖然後來Towson計畫停止,但Clarke決定轉學到Charleston,而他 在那裡成為大學裡最好的投手之一.2015球季,Clarke的12場勝投並列第一,126次三振排第 三,這都是Charleston的校史紀錄. Clarke的速球在比賽前段有mid-90,且到後段仍然有low-90的速度.他的速球缺乏尾勁但因 為高壓投球讓速球有下沉的軌跡並可以欺騙對手. 他丟一堆好球且有一顆堪用的變速,但Clarke缺乏一顆變化球可能會使他在pro之後轉任後 援.他的滑曲球(?)最高到81mph,不太使人上當,狀況好能投到邊邊角角. slurvy slider:Curveballs without a lot of vertical movement but with a good deal of horizontal movement. They're somewhere between a slider and a 12-to-6 or 11-to-5 curve. 看來第三輪會變成一隻牛～ --
