The 64th pick of the evening was the final Diamondbacks’ pick, and they had multiple players available who had been mocked to them in either the first round or the competitive balance round. But they went with none of these, instead going with Ivan Luciano, a catcher out of Puerto Rico.
Luciano projects as a defense-first catcher, with his arm as the best tool. He’s 17, and won’t be 18 until November. According to the MLB Network crew, he’s worked with Yadier Molina in Puerto Rico.
His best tool is his arm, and he has a chance to hit for decent average, if not much power.
