Revisiting the Braves’ past 10 years of first-round picks

The Braves’ past decade of first-round picks ended much stronger than it started.

With the MLB draft approaching, we decided to look back at the Braves’ past 10 years of first-round picks. The timeline featured three regimes – led by Frank Wren, John Coppolella and Alex Anthopoulos – and includes the team’s most recent draft, which was the first under scouting director Dana Brown’s leadership.

A look at the team’s earlier picks:

2019: Catcher Shea Langeliers (9th overall), infielder Braden Shewmake (21st overall)

It’s too early to make any determinations about the Braves’ latest duo, though the early returns are what they’d hoped.
