DETROIT -- Right-hander Casey Mize, the top overall pick in the 2018 MLB Draft by the Tigers, sat down with outfielder Nicholas Castellanos and closer Shane Greene during their 619 podcast to talk about what it was like being a Division I student-athlete at Auburn, adjusting to life in the Minor Leagues and how he'll handle the expectations that come with being the first overall pick.
Mize joined Nationals pitcher Stephen Strasburg as players to go from undrafted out of high school to becoming the top pick out of college. Mize pitched three seasons at Auburn.
