Three Pitt Baseball Players Taken in 2019 MLB Draft

The MLB Draft was held this week and three Pitt baseball players were selected.

Pitcher Dan Hammer was taken in the 13th Round by the Baltimore Orioles. Fellow pitcher Derek West went in the 14th Round to the Houston Astros. Perry rounded out the selections as he went in the 28th Round to the Detroit Tigers.

Perry was a senior so he’s definitely gone. West was taken last year in the 28th Round but ultimately decided to return for his junior year. This time, however, he appears ready to jump to the Astros, per this tweet.
