[Arizona Sports] With another pitcher-heavy draft, Diamondbacks looking for starter depth - The Arizona Diamondbacks’ draft was once again pitcher-heavy. That was not by plan, but by selecting based on need, the organization improved its pitching depth, scouting director Deric Ladnier said on a conference call Thursday. After drafting five pitchers in the first six rounds of the 2019 MLB Draft, Arizona took pitchers with four of the five total picks in the 2020 draft. “We were just basically going down our board and trying to take the best player available. If it happened to be a pitcher, it was,” Ladnier said.
