Phillies news: Latest MLB Mock Draft goes with a HS outfielder

There’s not much Phillies news going around with baseball still out of commission, but a new mock draft is breaking down who the Phillies could take in the 2020 MLB Draft.

MLB Pipeline’s Jonathan Mayo, one of the best draft and prospect experts in the business, released an early MLB Mock Draft looking at the 29 first round picks, which excludes the Astros.

With the 15th overall pick, Mayo is projecting the Phillies to take Robert Hassell an outfielder from Independence High School in Tennessee.

According to Baseball-Reference, there has never been a professional baseball player who came out of Independence High School in Tennessee.
