The Miami Marlins went heavy with pitchers in the 2017 MLB Draft. Knowing it is their greatest need in the minor leagues, they sought to address their issues with volume. For the fourth straight selection, Miami went with a pitcher.
Bryce Howe is a big-bodied right-hander that strays from the Miami Marlins profile. Standing at 6-foot-2 inches, and weighing in at 250-pounds, he’s stockier than most of the tall, lean power pitchers the team his historically favored.
Built like a tank, the organization has high hopes for the Oklahoma native.
Howe was used primarily as a starter while at Oral Roberts.
