What Happened to the Draft Pick the Pittsburgh Pirates Received for Bryan Morris?

On June 1, 2014, the Pittsburgh Pirates traded reliever Bryan Morris to the Miami Marlins. In exchange for Morris, the Pirates received a pick in the MLB Draft that took place later that month. That pick would prove to be the 39th overall pick in the draft.

Morris was a workhorse for the Pirates out of the bullpen in 2013. However, as we discussed on Monday, his peripherals that season were less than stellar. After posting even poorer peripherals to start the 2014 season, he was traded to Miami. So, whatever came of the draft pick the Pittsburgh Pirates received for Morris?
