Dodgers Daily Radio

Zack Plunkett has one of the most unique stories in professional baseball and he tells his story to Dodger Poke. He spent 5 years in College and never was a starter either at TCU or Arkansas, but, despite never being a starter he was drafted not once, but twice. He was a catcher all the way through, but had thrown 1 inning while at TCU, and just by a stroke of luck, a scout was in the stands and remembered how big his arm was. Fast forward several years and at a different school, this same scout, Brian Kraft, came to talk to Plunkett at Arkansas during his Senior season and told him that he couldn't draft him as a catcher because he had never started, but that he needed to try and pitch. Plunkett threw a couple bullpens, hit 97 with the fastball but never got in a game. Despite only having only pitched 1 inning in college, and never having pitched before that, the 6'2 Texas native was drafted in the 20th Round of the 2019 Draft. Amazing, amazing story and Plunkett tells it first hand and gives all the details on how it all happened.
