2016 Dodgers Draft Status

I listened to the Kyle Glazer (BA) podcast on the state of the Dodger prospects a couple of times last week. Besides some excellent information on few of the Dodger prospects (Lux, Ruiz, Smith, May, Verdugo…), he had some commentary on the 2016 draft by LAD. Recognizing where the Dodgers drafted he was more than complimentary on the draft and stated that it may be one of the very best organizational drafts in several years. While nothing will compare to the historic 1968 Dodgers draft, the 2016 is shaping up to be quite good.

It is estimated that somewhere around 12% of players drafted ever get to the ML much less contribute.
