LHP Kyle Hallock (24)
A 10th round draft pick by the Astros out of Kent State in 2011, Hallock had a terrific freshman season for Tri-City. In 13 starts, he was 3-4 with a 2.63 ERA and a 1.216 WHIP, and earned a mid-season All-Star nod. He started the 2012 season at Lexington with much less desirable results. After five starts, he had surgery to remove loose bodies from his pitching elbow and was expected to miss most, if not all, of the rest of the 2012 season. He is currently rehabbing in Kissimmee.
