MLB Amateur Draft – June 3-5

Most teams realize that the best and least cost approach to building a perennial winner is through draft and development. With a little more than 3 weeks before the June Amateur Draft, teams are very busy looking at who the next Mike Trout, Clayton Kershaw, or Aaron Judge may be. If it were an exact science all three would have been the overall #1 pick and yet they were not. Kershaw was the closest at #7 overall, but Trout went #25 overall and Judge went #32 overall.

10 years ago, the Angels selected Mike Trout in the 1st round.
