Drafted in the 6th round (175th overall) by the Texas Rangers in 2019 (signed for $700,000)
After a nondescript freshman season, Bradford was the Big 12 pitcher of the year in 2018, when he went 7-6, 2.51. He earned a spot with USA Baseball’s Collegiate National Team last summer and seemed on pace to be a reliable Day 2 pick thanks to his track record and strike-throwing ability. But Bradford made only three starts in 2019 before he was shut down with thoracic outlet syndrome. Pre-injury, Bradford sat 88-91 mph with a loose arm and an easy delivery that could add a tick more velocity. His 74-80 mph curveball is a sweepy, fringe-average pitch, and his changeup is below average. There’s probably not enough stuff for a team to take the risk on Bradford until he shows he’s healthy, but he was a potential sixth- to 10th-round pick before the injury so he could still entice a team after the 10th round.
