Black MiLB Players #22: Taj Bradley

A super raw pitching prospect who was barely touching 90 with his fastball in his first year of professional baseball, former two-way player Taj Bradley has blossomed into yet another intriguing starting pitcher in the Tampa Bay Rays farm system.

Player Profile

Taj Bradley is 6'2'’, and weighs around 200 pounds. He has a wiry and athletic frame. An above-average on-the-mound athlete, he repeats his delivery consistently whether its the full wind up or out of the stretch. He releases all of his pitches from similar release points, showing some deception and ability to tunnel his offerings. The shapes of his pitches compliment one another, which adds to the deception that he can work with. He commands all of his pitches well, leaving offerings out of the middle of the zone and understanding that his stuff works when its being used in an east-west manner.
