2015 Mets Draft Scouting Report: RHP Thomas McIlraith

In round 20, the Mets drafted Thomas McIlraith, who spent the year struggling in the back of Oklahoma's bullpen. Before that, he was a starter at Midland College with results that were not quite what you'd expect. He has average stuff, with a fastball that will sit in the low-90s, a short breaking ball, and a splitter, and although there's a non-zero chance he could start, a bullpen career is the more likely path.

In the 20th round, the Mets selected Thomas McIlraith, a junior from the University of Oklahoma, with the 599th pick of the draft.
