Bruce Egloff (Born April 10, 1965) is a former professional baseball pitcher in the late 1980s and early 1990s. He played at East High School (Denver), Merced Junior College, and UC-Santa Barbara, and was drafted by the Cleveland Indians in 1986.[1] Egloff pitched mostly in the minor leagues and he struggled with injuries throughout his career, including a three-times-torn rotator cuff[2] and a broken right hand.[3] He missed the entire 1992 regular baseball season while recovering from surgery to fuse two of his cervical vertebrae.[4]

After 1992, he appeared in the California Angels minor league system but retired at the end of the 1993 season rather than undergo further surgery to prolong his playing career.[5]

Egloff later worked as a minor-league pitching coach in the Detroit Tigers organization.[6]
