Cleveland Indians draft LHP Brady Aiken with their first-round pick

Yeah, that Brady Aiken.

Tribe News

The Tribe made some waves in the draft last night by taking left-handed pitcher Brady Aiken. The 18-year-old is coming off of Tommy John surgery and was drafted by the Astros first overall last year before he failed to sign with the team and returned to an independent league. It's a high-risk, high-reward type of move that could make the front office look brilliant if it pans out.
