One of the most exciting and interesting times of year is the annual MLB draft.
Teams spend countless hours scouting all across the country, attempting to find what they deem to be the best young talent eligible for the draft. It's a competition all its own.
Seeing as how the Baltimore Orioles had a losing record for 14 consecutive seasons prior to posting winning records in each of the last three, the team has had many top-five and top-10 draft picks over the last decade-and-a-half or so.
Because of that, one would think that the team is loaded with homegrown talent and the farm system is well-stocked with young, controllable players.
