Background

The MLB Draft will start this Wednesday. Over the next few days, we will profile several players the Yankees have been connected to who they could select with their first pick. You can find mock draft results and brief profiles here here and here. This profile and others this week will be more detailed. Hopefully the Yankees actually select one of these players! Up today: Slade Cecconi.

Background

Cecconi is a RHP out of Miami. He was drafted out of high school by the Orioles in the 38th round, but stayed firm in his commitment to attend college.
