2018 MLB Draft: Dodgers select Mississippi prep RHP J.T. Ginn at No. 30

After waiting for every other team to draft, the Dodgers finally got to make their pick at No. 30 and popped a prep pitcher in the first round for the first time since 2014. No, it wasn’t Ethan Hankins, it was J.T. Ginn from Brandon High School in Mississippi.

Ginn was No. 18 on my final Big Board, and I’m kinda surprised he was the selection here. I’m a big Hankins fan, so seeing the Dodgers pass on him for a guy who might be a reliever is a bit of a bummer.
