The New York Mets did their best to distract from a tough loss heading into the all-star break by drafting coveted Vanderbilt ace, Kumar Rocker. With the 10th overall pick, the Mets took the fiery right-hander in what was a shocking draft slip. As the new regime looks to continue to rebuild the recently thinned-out farm system, Rocker bolsters their minor league system in a big way.
