Prospect Season Review: Corbin Martin, RHP

As a big fan of pitchers who display a quality three-pitch mix early in their careers, Corbin Martin was a player that immediately caught my eye when the Astros selected him in round 2 of the 2017 draft. The Astros have shown a proclivity for drafting Aggies starters such as Martin, having hit on Daniel Mengden (now of the Oakland A’s) during the Luhnow regime, and thus far Martin looks like he is on a similar path. The 22 year old righty has a typical pitcher’s build, a bit on the smaller side for a starter at 6’2”, 200 lbs.
