MLB Draft: Marlins select former Mustang star Dax Fulton in second round
The Miami Marlins selected Oklahoma baseball signee Daxton Fulton in the second round of the MLB Draft on Thursday.
Fulton, the 6-foot-6, 220 pound left-handed pitcher from Mustang High School, was selected No. 40 overall.
First year Mustang coach Joe Patterson said he figured the 2019 Perfect Game All-American would be drafted early.
“Being 6’6 and left handed, he’s got a chance,” Patterson said. “Especially with a fastball that rises up to 95 mph. He’s got a gift that can’t be taught.”
