Drafted in the 8th round (246th overall) by the Seattle Mariners in 2019 (signed for $150,000).
View Draft Report
Adcock has serious athleticism and is a successful two-way player for Elon. The converted catcher has been up to 98 mph on the mound, showing the ability to spin a future average slider. While 2018 was a down season for him offensively, Adcock hit nine home runs and held a steady nine percent walk rate through his first 40 games this spring . He has a quiet set up at the plate with good bat speed and shows a feel to hit. His pure athleticism and plus arm strength could allow him to play multiple positions if a team prefers him as a hitter, but with a below-average hitting ability, most prefer him as a reliever, where his plus-plus fastball and slider give him late-inning upside. As a converted pitcher, Adcock could still make major improvements once he focuses his work exclusively on the mound.
