Truly amazed with the number of high school draftees.


Update:

15 of the first 30 picks were high school picks


I acknowledge this may/may not be the norm from previous years (as noted below), but I'm still shocked.

Was secretly hoping the White Sox would draft all the Aggies. They need the talent and it would be cool to have these guys playing with Braden and Appel

Amazed with all the gambling with these HS SS over a guy that has proven production in college along with a Golden Spikes Award.

No, but it's crazy for more than half of the first round picks come from high school.

A Rangers exec mentioned low confidence in the "proven products" in this draft compared to their cost. He predicted teams to take players in unexpected positions and bigger names sliding due to these cost savings.

ETA: This was during an interview last week in Round Rock

Not really. I think there were 16 in 21 & 14 in 22. There have been at least 10 high schoolers drafted 1st round going back years.

Never realized he didn't get drafted out of high school. Was that because he was 100% college?

The reason I asked if this was your first MLB draft is because that is pretty normal. It's usually around 50/50 giver or take a few depending on the year
