Major League Baseball's three-day amateur draft concluded on Tuesday, with the 30 teams blazing through 300 picks in less than 3 1/2 hours.

There were some familiar last names selected on the final day, which consisted of rounds 11 through 20.

The Los Angeles Angels took outfielder Lucas Ramirez in the 17th round. Ramirez is the son of 12-time All-Star Manny Ramirez. The Boston Red Sox selected D'Angelo Ortiz in the 19th round and he's the son of Hall of Fame slugger David Ortiz.

"We just felt like it was a good add to the organization," Red Sox director of amateur scouting Devin Pearson said.
