ESPN’s Kiley McDaniel projects Cooper Hjerpe to Braves in latest mock draft

The 2022 MLB Draft is less than three weeks away and so far, we have heard that the Braves are seemingly very interested in drafting a college starting pitcher with their first round pick. While that should hardly be surprising given the Braves track record in the draft in recent years, it is still pretty wild that the industry majority consensus for a while now has been that Atlanta will go college starter again and that lines up with a lot of what we are hearing as well.

The question, though, is who exactly will the Braves pick at #20 and that is a little trickier to answer.
