Curley, 23, was selected in the 3rd round of the 2025 MLB Draft out of Georgia and ranked as the No. 19 prospect in the Dbacks system by Baseball America. The Richmond, Va. native made 23 starts across High-A and Double-A this season and finished with the second-most strikeouts (130) of any Arizona farmhand. He pitched 5.0 shutout innings against Springfield in Game 2 of the Texas League Championship Series in his final start of the year to help Amarillo win the title.
