Orioles mock draft roundup: Experts divided on whether Druw Jones will go #1

The first round of the 2022 MLB draft is now a bit more than three weeks away. The Orioles, holders of another #1 overall pick thanks to their worst-in-MLB record last season, have that much time left to make the big decision of this draft. One big choice with two broad options stands before them.

The Orioles could choose who most lists seem to think is the top talent in the draft, high school outfielder Druw Jones, son of 17-year MLB veteran Andruw. This is what they did the last time they had the #1 pick in selecting Adley Rutschman.
