    Feltman has served as Texas Christian's closer for three years. He set the TCU single-season saves record in 2017 with 17 saves and tied Riley Ferrell's school career record with 32 saves by the end of April. The 6-foot righthander is a fast worker who attacks hitters with two plus pitches. His fastball sits in the mid-90s and has touched 98-99 mph at times. His hard, 84-85 mph slider has plenty of depth and late break, with more of a curveball's downward break than late, lateral tilt. Both are swing-and-miss offerings--in his first 16 appearances in 2018, Feltman was striking out nearly 16 batters per nine innings. Feltman's size and energetic delivery--which ends with him flying off the mound toward first base--make him best suited to continue in his relief role in pro ball. College relievers have stopped hearing their name called in the first round, but as one of the best closers in the country, Feltman should be a very solid pick in the second or third round.
