Austin Hansen - July 2018
Photo by Jayne Hansen
RHP Austin Hansen has had a terrific start to his professional career after being drafted in the 8th round in 2018 out of the University of Oklahoma. Several of the 2018 drafted college pitchers excelled with short season Tri-City last season, but that doesn't always translate well to full season A Quad Cities. But Hansen proved that his great 2018 debut (1.76 ERA/0.880 WHIP in 30.2 IP) wasn't a fluke. So far in 2019, Hansen is 4-1 with one save in his eight games (six starts). In 35.2 innings of work, he has a 1.01 ERA, a 1.009 WHIP and has held batters to a .146 batting average (.089 with runners on). Even more impressive is that he has not allowed a single run, earned or unearned, over his last six outings. Watch this space ...

In his first 29 games of the 2019 season with York, he is hitting .269/.370/.565 and still has the power he was originally signed for ...
