2019 MLB draft profile: RHP Alek Manoah and the Tigers are linked because he is a pitcher

Strangely, there are only a couple of pitchers mentioned as potential top 10 picks in the 2019 MLB draft class. This is generally unheard of, as most classes see several top arms considered for top-10 selection, many of which could go as high as first overall. The Detroit Tigers were linked with a pair of talented righthanders last year before they eventually selected Casey Mize with the No. 1 pick.

While this year’s class of arms is thin on premium talent, there are still a couple of pitchers that should go in the top 10.
