UNC Baseball: MLB Draft Recap

Day 1 of the MLB Draft obviously gets the most press, and there was some big news for UNC Baseball on that front, as star player Mac Horvath and high schooler Walker Jenkins were selected in the first couple of rounds; Jenkins was taken in the top 5 overall. But even though it’s not the 40-round affair it once was, the rest of the draft still casts an enormous net and changes a lot of players’ lives, particularly compared to the other American sports. Nobody of note for UNC fans was selected on Day 2 of the draft, which covers rounds 3-10, but four were taken on Day 3, in rounds 11-20.
