The Book on Matt Maloney
Prospect Info
Matt Maloney
Born 1/16/1984
LHP, CIN
A minor leaguer best known for being traded for Kyle Lohse at 2007's deadline, Matt Maloney is a promising ex-Phillies lefthander now in the Cincinnati Reds system. As a 24-year old, Maloney went 11-5 with a 4.68 ERA for AAA Louisville in 2008. Impressively, he struck out 132 while walking only 39, a rate he'll have to maintain if he's going to succeed as the fly-ball pitcher he appears to be. He could be one of the next wave of young Reds' pitchers given a shot at the bright lights and scary fences at Great American.
