RHP Auburn
2020 Auburn stat line - 6-G, 1-start, 1-0, 2.77, 13-IP, 16-K
1-5-21 - Baseball America's Mock Draft -
Richard Fitts Auburn RHP
The Blue Jays have one of the best farm systems in baseball thanks mostly to an exciting group of hitters, including the steal of last year’s draft—SS Austin Martin—in addition to SS Jordan Groshans, C Alejandro Kirk and SS Orelvis Martinez.
Here they add a pitcher to that group with Fitts, who raised his profile this fall but, like many pitchers in this draft class, has limited starting track record. Fitts has a three-pitch mix including a fastball, splitter and slider, but he has started just six games in his career and will have to perform to go in the top 20 picks—though his pure stuff fits. Fitts has a chance to become the fourth Auburn righthander selected in the first round, joining Casey Mize (2018), Chris Bootcheck (2000) and Gregg Olson (1988).
