The MLB Draft will begin NEXT WEEK, from June 3rd-5th. We’ve got oodles of coverage for you, which you can find in our MLB Draft 2019 section! To get us prepared, as we have in years past we’ll take a look back at the drafts of the past five years, giving ourselves a sense of how these things can go. Sometimes drafts that look great at the time pan out as expected. Sometimes... they do not.
The 2018 draft brought us our current number 6 prospect, a surprising early pick and a whole bunch of talented players, most still playing in the system, who we can laugh with, cry with and root for as we watch them grow into ballplayers, or engineers*, or whatever they decide to be, but hopefully mostly ballplayers.
