Franklin Todd Shook (born May 29, 1998) is an American professional baseball pitcher for the Colorado Rockies of Major League Baseball (MLB).

Career

[edit]

Shook played college baseball at the University of South Carolina.[1]

Milwaukee Brewers

[edit]

On July 24, 2020, Shook signed with the Milwaukee Brewers after going unselected in the 2020 MLB draft.[2] He did not appear for the organization during the year due to the cancellation of the minor league season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[3] Shook made his professional debut in 2021, accumulating a 5-2 record and 4.96 ERA with 71 strikeouts across 13 starts split between the rookie-level Arizona Complex League Brewers, Single-A Carolina Mudcats, and High-A Wisconsin Timber Rattlers.[4]

Shook made 25 appearances (including 21 starts) for Wisconsin and the Double-A Biloxi Shuckers during the 2022 campaign, accumulating a 6-3 record and 4.74 ERA with 118 strikeouts over 114 innings of work.[5] He returned to Biloxi for the 2023 season, registering a 7-5 record and 4.62 ERA with 107 strikeouts across 25 games (12 starts).

Shook made 17 appearances (11 starts) for Biloxi in 2024, compiling a 5-7 record and 4.90 ERA with 77 strikeouts across 64+1⁄3 innings pitched.[6]

New York Mets

[edit]

On July 21, 2024, Shook was traded to the New York Mets in exchange for Tyler Jay.[7] He made 13 appearances down the stretch for the Double-A Binghamton Rumble Ponies, posting a 3-4 record and 3.92 ERA with 30 strikeouts and four saves across 20+2⁄3 innings pitched.

Shook split the 2025 season between Binghamton and the Triple-A Syracuse Mets. In 36 appearances (including two starts) for the two affiliates, Shook logged a cumulative 6-2 record and 2.41 ERA with 61 strikeouts and eight saves over 56 innings of work.[8]

Colorado Rockies

[edit]

On December 10, 2025, the Colorado Rockies selected Shook from the Mets with the first overall selection in the minor league phase of the Rule 5 draft.[9] He was assigned to the Triple-A Albuquerque Isotopes to begin the 2026 season.

On June 1, 2026, Shook was selected to the 40-man roster and promoted to the major leagues for the first time.[10] He made his MLB debut the following day, tossing a scoreless inning against the Los Angeles Angels.[11]
