2021 Fantasy Outlook
Wilcox has long been on the MLB scouting radar due to his pure stuff, as scouts expect that he could develop three plus offerings in his arsenal. As a result, he drew strong interest from clubs in the 2018 draft, but he opted to enroll at the University of Georgia. After two seasons with the Bulldogs, Wilcox slipped to the 80th pick the in 2020 draft, once again due to his expected contract demands. Ultimately, he signed for $3.3 million -- well over slot value. Despite the pure stuff, there is concern surrounding Wilcox based on his delivery and ability to consistently throw quality strikes. As with many pitching prospects, that creates some reliever risk. After being dealt to the Rays in the offseason as part of the Blake Snell trade, Wilcox's future is even more uncertain, as Tampa Bay is well known for using pitchers in non-traditional roles.
