The Red Sox made two selections on Monday, and both players were high school bats with relatively similar profiles. After taking Triston Casas with their first pick, they came back with the 64th overall selection and nabbed left-handed outfielder Nick Decker. Last year’s draft was relatively college pitcher-heavy — though not too extreme — and it seems they are going in the opposite direction this year. Decker is obviously not as well-regarded as Casas was, but he was also taken 38 picks later. That’s kinda how it works, ya know? Let’s get to know Decker a little more, shall we?
