Tulsa Drillers left-hander Luke Fox is off to a nice start to his 2026 season, and on Monday was named Texas League pitcher of the week for his efforts for the week of April 14-19.
Fox made two starts for Tulsa last week, and didn’t allow a run in either outing. He bookended the series against the Arkansas Travelers, a Seattle Mariners affiliate, with 5 2/3 scoreless innings and six strikeouts and two walks on Tuesday, then four strikeouts in four scoreless innings on Sunday afternoon. He only allowed one hit in each start.
The Dodgers drafted Fox in the 17th round in 2023 out of Duke, where he missed his final season after Tommy John surgery, which delayed his professional debut until May 2024. Fox finished last season with nine starts for Tulsa, and in 13 Double-A starts to date has a 2.57 ERA with 69 strikeouts and 27 walks in 63 innings.
This season, Fox has only walked five batters to go with his 23 strikeouts and 32.4-percent strikeout rate in four starts.
Fox is the third Dodgers minor leaguer to win weekly honors this season. Triple-A Oklahoma City outfielder/first baseman James Tibbs III won Pacific Coast League player of the week for March 31-April 5, and Class-A Ontario right-hander Marlon Nieves won California League pitcher of the week for April 6-12.
