Biographical Information

Pitcher Calvin Rowe was drafted twice. Initially, he was taken in the 50th round of the 1996 amateur draft by the Arizona Diamondbacks, but did not sign. He did sign after being taken by the Detroit Tigers in the 9th round of the 1999 amateur draft, one pick ahead of infielder Matt Kata and a few picks ahead of future longtime second baseman Mark Ellis.

He never played above High A, going 12-16 with a 3.81 ERA in 41 starts in two professional seasons. In 224 2/3 innings, he allowed 218 hits and 24 home runs, while walking 94 batters and striking out 154.
