Monday night, the 2017 MLB Draft will begin and over the next three days, hundreds of baseball players will have an opportunity to move the highest level of baseball. As you might expect, anyone who gets drafted remembers that day fondly.
Recently, I asked Dodger pitchers Ross Stripling and Rich Hill about their draft day experience and I also spoke to two 2016 Dodger draft picks, Will Smith and DJ Peters who play for the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes about their experience last year. Finally, Drew Saylor, the Quakes manager talked about how having a big prospect as a college teammate helped his draft position.
