Biography

Ryan Cusick (born November 12, 1999) is an American professional baseball pitcher in the Oakland Athletics organization. He played college baseball for the Wake Forest Demon Deacons.

Amateur career

Cusick began his high school career at Lincoln-Sudbury Regional High School in Sudbury, Massachusetts before transferring to Avon Old Farms School in Avon, Connecticut, for his senior year in 2018. He was selected by the Cincinnati Reds in the 40th round of the 2018 Major League Baseball draft, but did not sign and instead enrolled at Wake Forest University where he played college baseball.

In 2019, Cusick's freshman season, he led the Wake Forest pitching staff in wins, going 7–3 with a 6.44 ERA over 65+23 innings. That summer, he played in the Cape Cod Baseball League with the Bourne Braves. He pitched 22+13 innings in 2020 before the remainder of the season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As a junior in 2021, Cusick started 12 games and compiled a 3–5 record, a 4.24 ERA, and 108 strikeouts over seventy innings.

Professional career

Atlanta Braves

Cusick was selected by the Atlanta Braves in the first round with the 24th overall selection of the 2021 Major League Baseball draft. He signed with the Braves for a $2.7 million signing bonus. To begin his professional career, he was assigned to the Augusta GreenJackets of the Low-A East. During his first year in the minor leagues, Cusick pitched 16+13 innings, striking out 34 batters, walking four, and giving up five earned runs. Cusick joined the Braves' minor league camp before the 2022 season began.
