Major League Baseball Draft Landings 2019?

The first three picks of the season were Casey Mize, Joey Bart, and Alec Bohm. Top rank and favourite in the college draft to join the MLB for this season was Casey Mize, who played college baseball for the Auburn Tigers and signed with the Detroit Tigers. Mize was first picked, the first rank and chosen in the first round. He has proven to be able to stay healthy and has had no issues this year regarding a tired arm and flexor strain suffered last summer.

The second pick was Joey Bart, who was ranked sixth overall, signed with the San Francisco Giants in the first round. Bart’s batting speed, strength and leverage gave him power to all fields from the right side of the plate and has made huge strides with his plate discipline this spring.

The third pick was Alec Bohm was ranked seventh overall and was known to manage the strike zone very well, making consistent contact from the right side of the plate. Bohm signed with Philadelphia Phillies. In the second rank was Brady Singer, who was signed in round one to Kentucky City Royals, but surprisingly was picked eighteenth. He played a pivotal role in the University of Florida’s Gators win of the national title and it seemed he would have had the chance to be the number one overall pick in the draft, but a slow start to his junior season knocked him down to the second rank.
