The Detroit Tigers selected right-handed Missouri high school pitching star Jacob Turner in the First Round of this years 2009 MLB First Year Draft. He was the 9th Overall Pick. Jacob stands 6 foot 5 inches and weights 205 pounds. He was 7-2 with a 0.60 earned run average as a senior. He struck out 113 batters and walked 13 in 58.1 innings.
Well the Tigers continue to go with more young arms and this was no surprise. This draft seemed to be a pitcher heavy draft. I'll be back with a post to sum up the Tigers 2009 Draft.
