John Doxakis refines his skills at Texas A&M

John Doxakis received little interest from major league teams as a senior at Lamar High in Houston in 2016. He spoke with two teams but went undrafted and honored his commitment to Texas A&M.

Although every baseball player dreams of starting a professional career, Doxakis was eager to attend Texas A&M due to his family’s history at the university. The university’s academics also stood out to Doxakis, who’s pursuing a degree in agricultural business.

In his three years at Texas A&M, Doxakis has refined his skills and improved his MLB draft stock. He’s one of the top college left-handed pitchers in June’s draft class and likely will be an early-round selection. 

“I made that commitment to myself to not worry about the draft as long as I can,” Doxakis said.“I am still not thinking about it too much. Obviously, you know it’s there. It hasn’t bothered me this season.”
