    ABOUT CORY

    -Abbott went to Serra High School in San Diego and served as the team’s primary catcher until his junior year. Even after setting a school record with a 0.73 ERA as a junior and posting a 1.52 mark as a senior in 2014, Abbott was eyeing Division II schools to play collegiate baseball. However, Loyola Marymount assistant Bryant Ward, who is now at UCLA, spotted him on a trip to watch another player. Soon after, Abbott signed with the Lions.

    -During three seasons at Loyola Marymount, Abbott went 17-8 with a 2.69 ERA over 56 appearances, including 28 starts. He struck out 196 batters over 217.2 innings.

    -Abbott’s breakout season came as a junior in 2017. He was named a First Team All-American and WCC Pitcher of the Year after going 11-2 with two complete game shutouts and a 1.74 ERA in 98.0 innings (15 starts). Abbott set school records for lowest opposing batting average (.173) and strikeout rate (11.9 K/9) to help the Lions to their first WCC title since 2000.

    -The crowning moment of Abbott’s junior season came in a start on March 25, 2017 against BYU. The San Diego native fired the first perfect game in LMU history, striking out 13, throwing 106 pitches and only going to four three-ball counts.

    2018 SEASON

    -Over his last nine starts, Abbott has allowed 13 runs, 10 earned, on 38 hits in 49.2 innings for a 1.81 ERA. During this stretch, which dates back to June 29, Abbott has struck out 54 against 17 walks.

    -With Myrtle Beach, Abbott has struggled early in games. In the first and second innings, he has yielded 13 runs on 26 hits in 24.0 innings for a 4.88 ERA. From the third inning on, he has surrendered nine runs, six earned, on 29 hits in 38.2 frames for a 1.40 ERA.

    -Abbott was promoted on June 5 to Myrtle Beach from Low-A South Bend. At the time of his promotion, Abbott was ranked second in the Midwest League in batting average against (.207), third in WHIP (1.01) and fourth in ERA (2.47). Among the circuit’s starters, he had the third-best strikeout rate (10.8 K/9).

    -The Chicago Cubs’ Minor League Pitcher of the Month for May, Abbott made six May starts with South Bend, going 3-1 with a 2.67 ERA (9 ER in 30.1 IP). He struck out an organizational-best 41 batters against just 11 walks. Opponents hit only .227 against him over the month.

    -With South Bend, Abbott overpowered right-handed batters. These same-sided hitters batted just .185 with a .474 OPS in 116 plate appearances. In comparison, left-handed hitters hit .246 with a .743 OPS in 69 plate appearances.

    2017 SEASON-After he pitched 98.0 innings for Loyola Marymount during his junior season, Abbott was limited to just 14.0 frames over five starts for Short Season Class A Eugene.

    ADDITIONAL CAREER NOTES-As a sophomore at Loyola Marymount in 2016, Abbott pitched to a 5-5 record and 4.24 ERA over 14 appearances, including 12 starts. He only struck out 34 hitters in 70.0 innings.

    -As a freshman in 2015, Abbott made 27 appearances and one start. The right-hander compiled a 1-1 record and 2.37 ERA, recording one save and 32 strikeouts against 10 walks in 49.1 frames.

    -Abbott majored in sociology while at Loyola Marymount.

    -Offensively as a senior at Serra High School in San Diego, Abbott hit .421 with 23 runs scored and 27 RBIs.

    -Born and raised in San Diego, Abbott has one sister, Aunica, and two brothers, Dylan and Brandon.
