We are just over two weeks out from the 2022 MLB draft and the news is starting to heat up. Mock drafts are becoming more frequent, and this time we have a new update from Jonathan Mayo at MLB pipeline. As has frequently been the case with these mock drafts, Mayo is projecting Atlanta to go with a college arm this time in Gabriel Hughes of Gonzaga.
If you’ve been following along with these mock drafts you’ve surely heard Hughes’s name connected to Atlanta before, as he presents an obvious fit to the Braves’s past selections.
