The MLB draft is coming up on Sunday and combined with the all-star break, it’s a nice little gap to think about something else in a long season.
Instead of thinking about the Phillies needing a new starting outfielder, a bullpen arm, or the backup catcher debate, you can think about a few players coming out of high school or college.
Of course, it is also the chance to see who becomes a future core member or who is an eventual trade chip. Maybe they’re neither.
I got to the draft process late and only to write this article.
