The Book on Tyson Ross
Prospect Info
Tyson Ross
Born 4/22/1987
RHP, OAK
A scout's favorite, righthander Tyson Ross was coveted by the Oakland A's for a few years, even before he rose to prominence as a Golden Spike finalist in 2008. The righthander is 6-7 and still growing, and his 97mph fastball may not have reached its top limit yet, either. His unorthodox delivery scares some, but teams are a lot more willing to see where strange mechanics take them ever since the success of Tim Lincecum. A definite sleeper for Oakland, and maybe the steal of the 2008 draft.
