Moskos is a hard throwing LH closer for the Tigers. He has the mechanics and temperment to produce in relief. He made 16 appearances for Team USA as their closer. In 18.67 innings, Moskos tallied 6 saves, striking out 31 while surrendering 6 hits, 2 runs (2 earned), and 4 walks. His experience in the bullpen may allow him a faster track to the major leagues. He has the repertoire to project out favorably as a major league closer. As with all of these players who will be discussed, we have to assume he’s healthy. I’d imagine Moskos is likely to be around when the Nationals select at #6. I don’t imagine they would select him there but he will likely not be around when the #32 selection comes.
