Finally free from their sign stealing related draft pick penalties, the Astros added three new players to the organization Sunday night at 28th, 64th and 80th overall. Their farm continues to sit near the bottom of most rankings, so tonight represented a key opportunity to begin a turnaround. Here’s a quick look at each of their selections from day one:
Drew Gilbert, CF, Tennessee
A 5’9”, 185 lb. spark plug, Gilbert has been a vocal leader of a dominant Vols club since arriving on campus. While his speed and defense were what got him on the field initially, Gilbert has deceptive raw power with strong max EVs, and improved in various offensive areas in 2022.
