With their second pick in the 2021 MLB Draft (No. 31 overall), the Marlins selected Joe Mack, a catcher from Williamsville East High School (East Amherst, NY).
“A simple but powerful left handed stroke that’s shown power to all fields. Consistently barreled up in all the big events last summer. Many believe Mack to be the best catching product in the class, bar none. Can stay behind the plate thanks to strong athleticism.” —Prospects Live (ranked No. 28 overall prospect)
“He has consistently performed at a high offensive level on the major national showcase circuit the last three years, including one of the strongest summers among the top 2021 players last year despite not having a high school season last spring due to the pandemic.
