Note: Since this writing, Tyler Ivey was placed on the 7-Day IL with Double-A Corpus Christi with an undisclosed injury.
Throughout his baseball journey thus far, Texas has consistently remained home base for Tyler Ivey, but he’s moved through several sets of scenery on his way to his current station. A native of Rowlett, TX on the east side of Dallas, Ivey was a decorated high school pitcher for Rockwall-Heath High School, a bit further outside of the city. He was an enigmatic prospect in those days, displaying a low 90s fastball and feel for a high-upside curveball that were delivered in an unorthodox fashion.
