Giants Day 2 draft recap

The San Francisco Giants didn’t draft as many players as the average team on Day 1 of the MLB Draft. After selecting James Tibbs III with their first-round pick, the Giants had to skip the second round after losing their selection when they signed Matt Chapman.

And it was the same on Day 2. The Giants got a late start on the action, since they had been penalized their third-round pick when they signed Blake Snell.

But they made up for lost time with an exciting rest of the day. The second day of the three-day draft was highlighted by the team’s fourth-round pick, outfielder Dakota Jordan from Mississippi State.
