Robert Leonard Bradley (born December 15, 1980) is a former minor league baseball pitcher.
Bradley attended Wellington Community High School in Wellington, Florida, where he was named a High School All-American. He was chosen by the Pittsburgh Pirates with the eighth overall selection in the 1999 Major League Baseball Draft. Though he signed a letter of intent with Florida State University, Bradley signed with the Pirates for a $2.3 million bonus.[1]
Bradley participated in the All-Star Futures Game in 2000. Prior to the 2001 season, Baseball America rated Bradley as the #20 prospect in baseball.
However, Bradley suffered many injuries. He required arthroscopic surgery in June 2001, and missed the remainder of the season.[2] Though he required Tommy John surgery in October 2001[3] and missed the 2002 season as a result, he was nevertheless added to the 40 man roster following the season.[4] He required surgery again in 2003.[5] Bradley struggled when he reached Triple-A in 2005, and he was unconditionally released to make room on the roster for Zach Duke.[6] Bradley went to camp with the Florida Marlins in 2006, but left after one day.[7]
