It’s already time our the annual MLB Draft position rankings, and the 2021 MLB Draft rankings start out where we’ve always started and that’s at catcher.
This is a very strong catching class, particularly on the high school side, and it’s not out of the question that you see as many as six different catchers with legitimate first round potential. Not that all of them are likely to stick at catcher defensively, but they all at least have a chance.
The Atlanta Braves aren’t expected to be targeting a catcher in the first round due to the presence of William Contreras and Shea Langeliers.
