View Draft Report
The Conference USA pitcher of the year, Schoenrock broke out as a junior in his first year as a full-time starter. The 6-foot-1, 199-pounder is the son of Memphis head coach Daron Schoenrock, who was previously a pitching coach at Mississippi State, and has a good feel for pitching. He profiles as a reliever as a pro, with command of two pitches and a feel for spin. His fastball generally sits in the upper 80s and touches 91 mph. His curve is his best pitch and is above-average at its best. He threw well in a matchup against Marshall's Aaron Blair that was well attended by scouts and may have moved up some draft boards, and most scouts considered him a good fit in rounds eight to 12.
