The Detroit Tigers might have hit a home run on the first day of the 2018 MLB draft.
The Tigers took Auburn right-handed ace Casey Mize with the No. 1 overall pick, then added high school outfielder Parker Meadows (Grayson High/Loganville, Ga.) in the second round at No. 44.
Both picks were praised by baseball pundits on Monday.
