MLB Draft 2020: Latest Predictions for Asa Lacy, Top Pitching Prospects

Sam Craft/Associated Press

The consensus building around Major League Baseball is that Texas A&M's Asa Lacy should be the first pitcher chosen in the 2020 MLB draft.

Lacy headlines a collection of collegiate arms that could land in the Top 10, starting with the Miami Marlins at No. 3.

Since the Detroit Tigers and Baltimore Orioles are projected to take Arizona State first baseman Spencer Torkelson and Vanderbilt utility man Austin Martin, Miami is in line to pick any pitching prospect in the draft class.

Georgia right-handed pitcher Emerson Hancock and Louisville lefty Reid Detmers are among the prospects expected to be chosen once Lacy is selected.
