This preview will preview how the first three rounds of the MLB Draft could go for Billy Eppler and the LA Angels. With Mike Trout in Anaheim for the long haul, and apparently very interested in the team’s farm system, Eppler can give complete focus to the long-term health of the organization with this draft.
Round One, Pick 15: Nick Lodolo, LHP, Texas Christian University
This is the dream pick for Billy Eppler and the LA Angels. Lodolo came into the year as a late first/early second round type of prospect. However, after a dominant start to the year, has seen his stock rise as far as anybody’s this year.
