Tavo Rodriguez

Draft Prospects

• Ranked #277 prospect in 2013 draft
  Rodriguez shows flashes of early-round ability, but he probably has not done it consistently enough for a team to buy him away from a commitment to Oklahoma. He has a terrific body (6-foot-4, 205 pounds) and can zip his fastball to 93 mph at times. He tends to pitch to radar guns early in games and looks better once he stops overthrowing. When that happens, he has much better command of an 85-88 mph fastball, spins a curveball and shows feel for a changeup. He's still a project, but he's a projectable lefthander who could blossom in three years with the Sooners.
