    View Draft Report
    Pickell began his college career at North Carolina, but after barely pitching as a freshman, he transferred to Pitt (N.C.) JC, where he was dominant, going 10-1, 2.15 in his lone year there. Pickell’s success did not carry over to Western Carolina. He is 0-4, 13.33 in 27 innings over the past two seasons, primarily as a reliever. However, he’s a legitimate draft prospect because he struck out 33 in 16.2 innings this year thanks to a lively 95-96 mph four-seam fastball and an 85 mph slider that shows plenty of flashes of promise. Pickell has walked 31% of all batters he has faced the past two seasons, but he’s also stuck out 26%, which may entice a team to see if they can tame his wildness.
