In the 2021 MLB Draft, much pre-draft hoopla centered around a pair of star pitchers from Vanderbilt, Jack Leiter and Kumar Rocker. The Texas Rangers would take Leiter second overall, and then got another chance to take Rocker with the third overall pick in 2022, after the Mets, who drafted him tenth overall in 2021, declined to sign him due to health concerns.
Bryan Woo, also part of the 2021 Draft, attracted significantly less intrigue when he was drafted in the sixth round that year, similar to now-teammate Bryce Miller, taken in the fourth round. Even though both have been productive major-league pitchers longer than Rocker, whose journey to the bigs was slowed by injury, make no mistake: both of them know exactly where they were drafted, and who was drafted in front of them.
