11th Round - #350 - Logan Taylor, RHP, Eastern Oklahoma State JC, Okla.

2009 -
Logan Taylor is a 2010 RHP/1B/3B with a 6'5'', 205 lb. frame from Tulsa, OK who attends Jenks HS. Outstandng pitcher's frame, lean athletic look. Fast paced delivery, stays on line, fast arm, FB 88-90 mph, mostly straight, good downhill angle when down in zone, hard spin on CB, buries many but sharp when in zone, flashes change up. Should keep improving. Premium prospect who will get pro looks next spring. Good student.

Baseball America -

Taylor began his college career at Northeast Texas CC in 2011, transferred to Arkansas last fall and moved on to Eastern Oklahoma State when he didn't survive the Razorbacks' final cut. He helped the Mountaineers come within an extra-inning defeat of advancing to the Junior College World Series, taking the loss in a 10th-inning relief appearance against Jefferson (Mo.) CC. Taylor ended the regional playoffs ranked third among national juco players in strikeouts (114) and strikeouts per nine innings (13.5). Taylor sometimes battles his control and command, but when he's on, he's tough on hitters with a 90-94 mph and a 12-to-6 curveball. He did a better job of keeping his 6-foot-5, 242-pound frame in shape this year. If he doesn't turn pro, he'll transfer back to Arkansas.
