The Cubs did not drift at all from their draft strategy on Day Two of the 2015 MLB Draft. Just like previous years, the Cubs went after pitching, pitching, and more pitching. And not just any pitching – left-handed and senior pitching. It began with giant prep lefty Bryan Hudson in the third round and continued through the ninth round pick, Tyler Peitzmeier.
The Cubs also continued stocking up on left-handed-hitting outfielders in speedster DJ Wilson out of Canton, Ohio in the fourth round. They began dipping into the college ranks for pitching with lefty Ryan Kellogg in round 5 and side-arming reliever David Berg in round 6.
