Clemson outfielder has been drafted in the fifth round of the 2024 MLB draft.
Taylor was selected with the 145th pick by the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Taylor injured his left wrist (glove hand) while making a diving attempt at a foul ball against NC State on April 14. The junior broke a small bone in his left wrist and had a procedure done to fix it.
At the time of his injury, Taylor was starting to get back to the form that made him a highly regarded MLB prospect coming into the season. He had seven home runs and 19 RBIs before the injury.
