    Another member of one of the hardest-throwing staffs in college baseball, Taylor has an excellent low 90s fastball that touches 94-95 regularly and has touched 97 in the past. His fastball's run and sink is actually more impressive than his velocity. He mixes in a usable slider, but it doesn't miss a whole lot of bats, so Taylor generates ground balls and shows feel for setting up hitters.
