All things considered, the Arizona Wildcats had a pretty good last few days.
The only two members of the 2020 squad to have their names called during the shortened 2020 MLB Draft—catcher Austin Wells and utilityman Matthew Dyer—were the ones projected to be selected, while just one of Arizona’s crop of highly-touted recruits was taken over five rounds and two days.
And just before the draft began Wednesday, the NCAA approved legislative relief for college baseball teams that will help them better manage outsized rosters next year that are a byproduct of the 2020 season getting cut short in mid-March because of the coronavirus pandemic.
