Georgia RHP Tim Elliott is the Mariners 4th round pick at No. 126

If you were to line up 4th round pick RHP Tim Elliott and 3rd round pick RHP Levi Stoudt in a bullpen, you might see a very similar profile. Elliott is a 6’1, 200 lbs righty working 90-94 with his heater and getting most of his whiffs on a late biting changeup. He’ll mix in a slider and curveball, but both could use work.

Elliott is a junior draftee out of the University of Georgia, where he had been predominantly a reliever until this year. Refining his command, Elliott was one of the better pitchers in the SEC, and certainly the best midweek starter, running a 2.
