2016 Texas Rangers draft preview: Joey Wentz

2016 Texas Rangers draft preview: With the MLB draft coming next week, I'm going to highlight a few of the players who I anticipate will be on the Rangers' radar at #30. These aren't scouting reports or anything, but just capsule write-ups so you have some familiarity with guys who would appear to be in the mix for the Rangers to take with their first round pick.

This afternoon we are looking at Joey Wentz, a lefthanded pitcher out of Shawnee Mission East High School in Prairie Village, Kansas. A couple of years ago, when doing draft capsules, there was a high school pitcher whose stuff drew great reviews, but who had some arm issues in the spring that saw him slide on some draft boards.
