He’s Kyson Witherspoon and comes from Jacksonville, Floria. Nailing down exactly where in Jacksonville is trickier, though, as Kyson and his three siblings (including one twin, Malachi, who was also drafted last night) moved 10 different times as children while their single mother hustled to pay the bills. The slot value of the 15th overall pick is over $5 million, so hopefully mom can finally put her feet up.
What position does he play?
He’s a right-handed starting pitcher.
Will he be any good?
The answer to this question is always the same or every prospect (and it is even more pertinent with pitchers): no one knows.
