MLB’s top draft prospect is off the board.
The Diamondbacks have selected Druw Jones, the No. 1 overall prospect in the MLB Draft according to MLB.com, with pick No. 2 in the 2022 MLB Draft.
Jones, the son of Braves legendary outfielder Andruw Jones, went to Wesleyan High School in Georgia and plays center field like his father. He is committed to play at Vanderbilt next year, but is unlikely to attend after getting drafted as high as he did.
In high school, Jones lived up to expectations, getting a hit in over half of his at-bats and stealing over 30 bases.
