A new mock draft at Baseball America by friend of the site Carlos Collazo has dropped today and has an interesting pick for the Braves. In their third mock draft of the season Collazo has the Braves selecting George Lombard Jr., a shortstop out of Gulliver Prep HS in Miami, Florida.
If that name sounds familiar it would be because his father, also George Lombard, was once a top prospect in the Braves organization. Lombard, who topped out as the #26 prospect in baseball in 1999 according to BA, played parts of six seasons in the big leagues - including three with the Braves.
