After picking Jonathan India with the fifth overall selection in the Major League Baseball Draft, the Reds selected pitchers with their final two picks Monday night.
The Reds picked high schooler Lyon Richardson, from Jensen Beach (Fla.), with the 47th overall pick and followed with Le Moyne College’s Josiah Gray with the No. 72 selection.
The right-handed Richardson, committed to play at Florida, has a fastball that has been clocked as fast as 97 mph but sits closer to 92 mph.
