The 2021 Major League Baseball Draft will be held beginning on July 11. The Miami Marlins will have the 16th overall pick in the draft after finishing with a 31-29 record last season. Due to an agreement made during the COVID-19 pandemic, this year’s MLB Draft will be 20 rounds (shorter than usual but longer than last year’s draft). The Marlins will have 21 picks in this draft which includes the first Competitive Balance Round A pick.
Just like in my previous mock draft a month ago, we will focus on the first five rounds. As we get closer to the draft, we may expand as the focus on other top high school and college players that could hear their names get called.
