BBB Top Prospect Countdown #27: Cale Coshow

Cale Coshow, a 13th round pick in the 2013 draft, comes in at #27 on our prospect list. The 23 year old was born in Edmond, Oklahoma and attended Oklahoma Christian University which is located in his hometown of Edmond. Coshow was one of two players from Oklahoma Christian University to be drafted in 2013 as teammate Chris Burgess was drafted in the 26th round by the Phillies.
Breakdown
After being drafted by the Yankees in 2013, Coshow made his professional debut that summer with Low-A Staten Island where he pitched in 15 games, four starts, and a 3.76 ERA while going 0-2. In 2015 Coshow, across three levels, had a 9-5 record with a 2.45 ERA 33 games and 15 starts. Coshow finished the season in Double-A where he pitched to a 3.51 ERA in six starts.

Projection
While Coshow has been an occasional starter in the minors, I expect him to contribute in the big leagues as a reliever. Throughout the minor leagues, Coshow has been a better pitcher as a reliever and that is most likely where he will have the most success moving forward. Coshow will most likely start the 2016 season in either Double-A or Triple-A and don’t be surprise if he ends up punching a ticket to the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre-Bronx Shuttle.
