Drafted in the 9th round (278th overall) by the Chicago Cubs in 2018 (signed for $130,000)

A senior performer with Virginia, Casey was taken in the 22nd round of the 2014 draft by the Cardinals out of high school but made it to campus in Charlottesville. After throwing 32 innings and posting a 3.06 ERA during his freshman season, Casey underwent Tommy John surgery in 2015 which kept him out for the entirety of the 2016 season. Since returning in 2017, Casey has posted a sub-4.00 ERA in back-to-back seasons and struck out a career-high 106 batters this spring, while walking 25. He pitches in the 88-93 mph range with his fastball, with a solid changeup and a fringe-average breaking ball.
