With the 85th pick in the 2024 MLB draft, the Detroit Tigers have selected right-handed pitcher Josh Randall.

As a converted catcher who started pitching full-time in college at Arizona, Randall transferred to San Diego for his junior season and found significantly more success on the mound there. He was announced as a starting pitcher and has the build to carry a full workload of innings one day. At 6-foot-4 and already carrying 240 pounds, there is no physical projection left for Randall — he’s already as physical as it gets.

The primary pitch for Randall is a heavy slider that he throws with substantial velocity.
