The Cincinnati Reds are not the most difficult team to dissect in draft approach. They lean towards college pitchers and high school hitters with an occasional foray into the college hitters that can get on base. This year the Reds will have their pick from every player, save the one that the Minnesota Twins open the draft with in June.
That makes the most likely player for the Reds to take, Brendan McKay, the first baseman/left-handed pitcher combo out of the University of Louisville who passed on the 2014 draft. He is the number two position player in the draft, but ranks higher than the number one outfielder in power.
