MLB Draft Day 2

The Phillies aren’t picking for a while yet, but there’s a lot of talent still on the board, including guys I thought might go top 20. They’re going to have to fall 29 spots to get to the Phillies, but there is a lot of quality still out there. I’m popping an asterisk after a few names in the list below since I assume they dropped because they’re unsignable. In no particular order the best available:

  • Kumar Rocker, RHP - High School (HS)*
  • Cole Wilcox, RHP - HS*
  • Tristan Beck, RHP - Stanford
  • Mike Siani, OF - High School (Philly)
  • Adam Kloffenstein, RHP - HS*
  • Blaine Knight, RHP - Arkansas
  • Tristan Pompey, OF - Kentucky
  • Nander de Sedas, SS - HS
  • Konnor Pilkington, LHP - Mississippi State
  • Matt Mercer, RHP - Oregon
  • Luken Baker, 1B - TCU

A few notes on players listed above- Matt Mercer is a possible high leverage relief arm, from an area the Phillies scout strongly.
