The last of the “fab-five” pitchers taken in the first five picks of the 2018 Major League Baseball Amateur Draft by the Kansas City Royals, Kris Bubic has been nothing short of incredible since starting his professional career. The former Stanford product began this season at Single-A Lexington and made 9 starts there.
In those starts, Bubic tossed 47.2 innings with 75 strikeouts to just 15 walks and a 2.08 ERA. He was promoted to High-A Wilmington at the end of May and it’s been more of the same for Bubic. He’s made 16 starts for Wilmington and threw 95.
