The 2016 Major League Baseball draft is just a little under a month away, taking place on June 9. Using MLB.com, Baseball America, and other various sites, I’ll be ranking each high school player by position over the next couple of weeks, starting with the arms.
The Pirates aren’t afraid to go with young position players, and they have taken a high school middle infielder the upper first round with Cole Tucker in 2013. However, in Neal Huntington’s tenure as general manager, Tucker is the only high school middle infielder he has taken in the first, second and third rounds.
