With their 40th round pick, 1207th
overall, in the 2018 MLB First Year Players Draft the New York Yankees selected
Reid Anderson, a right-handed pitcher out of Brown University. Let’s meet the
man that concluded the Yankees 2018 Draft when he was selected. This is Meet a
Prospect: The Reid Anderson Edition.
Anderson, an Aledo, Texas native, was a starter for Brown
University all four years while at the school pitching in a total of 31 games,
26 as a starting pitcher. Along the way Anderson racked up 130 strikeouts over
143 innings across four seasons including a team-high 41 K’s as a junior in
2017. Anderson did pitch to a 5.98 ERA while at Brown University, but the
right-hander was much stronger in High School pitching to a 12-1 record with a
0.72 ERA with 80 strikeouts in 70 innings.
The Yankees have signed their 40th round pick so let us be
one of the first to welcome him not only to the Yankees organization, but to
the Yankees family as well. You can follow Reid on Twitter by following
@YouKnowTaco , one of the best Twitter handles in all of baseball in my
opinion.
