Ted Stuka

Draft Prospects

• Ranked #321 prospect in 2019 draft
  Stuka nearly signed with the Orioles as a 38th-round pick last year as a draft-eligible sophomore. The 6-foot-7 righthander returned to campus, improved both his stuff and his control and now stands to go significantly higher. Stuka's fastball sits 92-93 mph and touches 95-96 with heavy sink. He pairs his sinking fastball with an above-average to plus splitter, inducing a heavy volume of ground balls. Stuka generates good plane on both offerings with his height and is difficult to square up. He also has an average slider. Stuka's control comes and goes due to his big body. He walked 6 per nine innings this year, up slightly from last year's 5.7 walks per nine. Stuka projects for most evaluators as reliever with two potential plus pitches in his fastball and splitter.
