Clemson pitcher Mack Anglin heard his name called in the seventh round of the MLB draft when the Kansas City Royals took the sophomore right-hander with 205th overall pick.

Anglin has signed with the Royals for a reported $231,100.

Anglin was the Tigers’ most consistent starter this past season, posting a 4.11 earned run average in 14 starts. He struck out 74 batters in 72 ⅓ innings while yielding 56 hits and 48 walks. He has an 8-12 record and 4.44 ERA in 25 career starts for the Tigers.
