2019 MLB Draft Profile: CF Maurice Hampton, Memphis University HS (Tenn.)

This is the first in (hopefully) 10 MLB Draft profiles on prospects in the 2019 Draft. But before we get to the profile, here’s a very brief primer on the draft. A more detailed version will be posted closer to the draft (which is June 3).

The Dodgers have two first-round draft picks this year after failing to sign JT Ginn, their first-rounder in 2018. Overall, they have a bonus pool for $8,069,100. They can go up to 5 percent (less $1) over to avoid any severe penalties. Odds are, they’ll do that, just as they have in the last handful of years.
