The Oakland Athletics picked up some quality baseball players during the 2015 draft including shortstop Mikey White. White is currently the A’s No. 15 prospect and, out of all of the Athletics’ 2015 draftees, has excelled the most during his short time in the minor leagues this year. Even though Oakland took another shortstop – Richie Martin – before choosing White, his offensive power allowed him to be the A’s second overall pick in this year’s draft.
While Martin was chosen by the Athletics for his defensive skills, Oakland liked White because of his bat.
