Luke Taggart, RHP
2022 Stats: 11.1 IP, 0.00 ERA, 0.53 WHIP, 14 K
Taggart actually went undrafted out of the University of Oklahoma. Perhaps that put a chip on the righty’s shoulder as he’s sliced and diced his way through pro hitters so far.
Taggart was actually fast-tracked to High-A Spokane this year along with Joe Rock and outfielder Robby Martin (eighth-round pick), making his early-season performance that much more impressive.
In 11.1 innings, the late-inning reliever has yet to give up a run, has struck out 14, and has a WHIP of just 0.53.
What a find this is turning out to be for the Rockies as Taggart is already making his case to finish the season in Double-A.
