THE BOOK ON AUSTIN COX: The Kansas City Royals loaded up on college pitching in the 2018 Draft and the crop of picks included southpaw Austin Cox in the fifth round out of Mercer University (Macon, GA). Cox attended First Presbyterian Day School (GA) which was the same school former Blue Rock and Royals’ prospect Richard Lovelady attended and also attended Macon, HS before putting together an impressive career with Mercer. Last year in his junior season, he led the team with 17 starts and ranked fifth in the Southern Conference with seven wins. With 124 strikeouts, he posed the second-best rate (12.7K/9) rate in Division I. Made nine starts in his pro debut season with Rookie Burlington and went 1-1 with a 3.78 ERA. He racked up 51 strikeouts in just 33.1 innings while allowing just 15 walks. His 13.8K/9 rate was the best strikeout rate among Royals farmhands (min. seven starts). Currently ranked the 20th-best prospect in the Royals’ system according to MLBPipeline.com. LAST TIME OUT: Cox turned in his second straight quality start last time, holding Lynchburg to just two runs on six hits over six innings. The lefty whiffed seven and walked none. VERSUS OPPONENT: This is Cox’ second start against the Red Sox. He did not allow an earned run over six innings on July 12, yet took the tough-luck loss. Cox fanned seven, walked two and held the Sox to four hits and an unearned tally. HIS TIME IN LEXINGTON: Cox began the season at Low-A Lexington where he went 5-3 with a respectable 2.75 ERA in 13 starts. The southpaw logged 75.1 innings, allowed 23 earned runs on 59 hits, walked 22 and struck out 77 while holding opponents to a .206 batting average. At the time of his promotion on Sunday, he ranked in the top-ten in the South Atlantic League in ERA, strikeouts, innings pitched, batting average against and WHIP. He was also named a mid-season SAL All-Star. QUALITY ARM: Of his 13 starts with Lexington, eight of them were quality starts including five being scoreless outings. Throughout his tenure with the Legends, Cox only walked more than three batters once. On May 28 against West Virginia, he fell two outs shy of tossing a no hitter during a seven-inning affair in a doubleheader. He ended up allowing one hit, one walk, struck out seven in 6.1 innings of work. ONLY CHANCE: For many athletes, they have the opportunity to decide which university they want to attend to further their education and athletic careers from a list of handful of programs interested. However, for Cox, that wasn’t the case. The lefty had one school close to home that gave him the chance he needed. “Honestly it was my only offer. I was talking to a couple of other schools and I kind of was running out of time. Nobody else had pulled the trigger and given me an offer, so I took the Mercer offer. It worked out being close to home. I’m from right around there, I went to school at Macon High School in Macon (GA) so it worked out really well to be able to be around my family for another three years. Everything kind of came together and worked out there. TRANSFORMING IN COLLEGE: College is a time and place where many learn to live on their own and mature. For Cox, it didn’t take long for him to realize that both on and off the field. In his freshman season he posted a 10.13 ERA in 27 appearances with one start. “Well, coming into my freshman year, I wasn’t very mentally tough. I had a really rough freshman year. I learned how to work. I came in freshman year and you know, coming in, you think you’re all that so I got humbled really fast. I had to learn how to work really fast and there’s a lot of guys there that have known that and had learned that in the years before me that could help me through it. Once I learned how to work that was that was really when the tables kind of turned and I feel like the biggest thing I took out that was my mental toughness. Just from struggling to being able to succeed and then to get drafted it was a really cool experi- ence to see myself where I came from and where I where I got to go. A BORN LEADER: The lefty earned high praise for his leadership at Mercer and that’s something that Cox takes very seriously still to this day as he enters his first, full-season in the Royals’ system. “It’s something that I feel like honestly my whole life I’ve always wanted to be. I want to be in front of everything. I want people to look at me and say that’s how it’s supposed to be done. That’s just something I’ve always been very prideful with was leading. Whether it’s going good or going bad I want to be at the front of it.” TRYING TO BE THE BEST: Delivery wise, before I throw would be Clayton Kershaw. I like his mental side of the game too. Not as much when I throw though. I feel the way I throw is different. I don’t really have anybody that I specifically model after. I try to model the way Kershaw just attacks hitters. I like to try to emulate as much of him as I can. I know I will never be him but I still like to try to see if I can be like him.

What host families do for the players, the behind the scenes stuff that they take care of to make it an easy transi- tion for us, they are the real heroes. On going to UC Riverside “I went to a community college out of high school and at the time, they came and saw me play a few times and I had a few teammates on the team who were committed there so they would come out and watch them play and consequently saw me play and after that, I signed and really enjoyed my time there.” On signing free agent deal with the Royals “It was a dream come true. The fact that they are giving me an opportunity to continue my baseball career is something I will forever be greatful. I want to ride this wave as long as I can.” On playing other positions “I can play third base, but middle infield, espe- cially shortstop is where I played mostly in college. As long as I’m out on the field trying to help the team win, it doesn’t matter where I play. At third base, it’s more of a one-handed position. Sometimes you are playinig for a bunt, other times you don’t have that much reaction time and you have to be ready.” On deciding to want to pursue baseball as a career “I grew up playing the game. “My two older brothers played and my dad played in college and a little bit after that. I’d say it was after high school when I had the opportunity to either pursue baseball or sit back. Due to an elbow injury, I actually took my freshman year off and that really opened my eyes and solidified that I would miss the game. It’s a grind and if you don’t really love the game, it can chew you up and spit you out.” On learning more than just the elbow injury “I actually found out that I have a gluten allergy so now my diet is extremely important to me. I put on muscle, I put on weight and now I’ve never felt better and it’s really been beneficial for me. Person or player he idolized “Although my dad is a Boston Red Sox fan, I’ve always loved watching Derek Jeter. Just the type of guy he is and his work ethic. Dustin Pedroia is an absoulte grinder and a little guy. Then there’s my dad, he’s been there every step of the way baseball wise.
