Daulton Jefferies

Daulton Jefferies
Oakland Athletics
Pitcher
Born: (1995-08-02) August 2, 1995 Merced, California
Bats: Left Throws: Right

Daulton Compton Jefferies (born August 2, 1995) is an American professional baseball pitcher in the Oakland Athletics organization. He played college baseball for the California Golden Bears. He was drafted by the Miami Marlins out of high school in the 39th round of the 2013 Major League Baseball Draft but did not sign, instead deciding to attend school at the University of California, Berkeley. After his junior year he was drafted by the Oakland Athletics with the 37th overall pick of the 2016 MLB Draft.

Jefferies attended Buhach Colony High School in Atwater, California where he both pitched and played shortstop. As a junior in high school, Jefferies was named Central California Conference MVP after going 8-0 with a 1.26 earned run average (ERA) and putting up a .366/.480/.505 slash line. Daulton's senior season was equally as impressive as he went 10-2 with a 0.92 ERA and a school record 142 strikeouts, again taking home the Central California Conference MVP.^[11] Jefferies had initially verbally committed to play baseball for Stanford University during the summer of his junior year of high school, but the offer fell through and Jefferies was forced to find another school, eventually deciding on the University of California, Berkeley.^[12]

As a freshman for the California Golden Bears in 2014, Jefferies started 15 games, finishing the year 2-8 with a 3.45 ERA and 58 strikeouts in a team-high  92 ²⁄₃ innings. Jefferies' sophomore season saw both his record and earned run average improve, as he appeared in 14 games, starting 13, and went 6-5 with a 2.92 ERA, enough to warrant a First Team All-Pac-12 selection.^[13] The summer after his sophomore season, Jefferies was a member of the USA Baseball Collegiate National Team.^[14]

Jefferies was drafted by the Oakland Athletics with the 37th overall pick of the 2016 MLB Draft.^[15] He spent his first professional season with the AZL Athletics where he posted a 2.38 ERA with 17 strikeouts in 11.1 innings pitched.^[16]

Jefferies has a four pitch repertoire. His fastball has a bit of sink and sits in the low-to-mid 90's, but can top out around 96 mph. His primary off-speed pitch is his changeup which he throws in the mid-80's with good sink and fade. He also has a decent slider and a good three-quarters curveball.^[17]

Jefferies is the nephew of former MLB pitcher Blas Minor, and his older brother Jake pitched in the minor leagues for both the Miami Marlins and Tampa Bay Rays organizations.^[18]
