MLB Draft 2017 profile: Morgan Cooper, second round

Name: Morgan Cooper

School: University of Texas

What he’s good at right now: Cooper has returned from Tommy John surgery earlier in his career to be the top arm in a talent Texas rotation. Cooper can flash a mid-90s fastball, but his go to pitch this year was a downer breaking ball the he can throw for strikes. He works deep and has the build that portends durability.

What he can be good at in the future: Cooper is an older collegiate prospect and has a fairly filled out frame, so he’s not likely to gain too much on his stuff.
