2010 Indians 31st Round Pick: RHP David Goforth

June 9, 2010
In the 31st round of the 2010 Draft, the Indians have selected RHP David Goforth out of the University of Mississippi.

Height: 5'11" Weight: 180 DOB: 10/11/1988 Bats: Right Throws: Right

Bio: Here is his player page at the University of Mississippi.

Quick analysis:  Goforth is a draft eligible sophomore having pitched in just two college seasons after being redshirted in 2008.  Once again the Indians are avoiding the filler college senior easy signs and taking some gambles on guys who are a higher risk to sign.  His fastball has been up to 95 MPH, but he seemed to struggle this year with a move to the starting rotation (1-6, 9.43 ERA) after pitching in the bullpen previously.

Video: Here is a video clip of him on MLB.com.
