Mock draft: Another pitcher goes to Pirates at No. 7
Major League Baseball mock drafts are fun, Lunatics.
The pool of talent is so deep and so unpredictable, pretty much nobody can agree on even the top-10 picks. Beyond one, two and three in the 2020 MLB Draft, the likely selections form a total guessing game, leaving plenty of discussion around what the Pirates will do when they do take the virtual stage June 10 with the No. 7 overall pick.
Recently, ESPN had the Pirates taking Heston Kjerstad, a left-handed, power-hitting outfielder from the University of Arkansas. MLB.com, meanwhile, pegged the Pirates to go with Reid Detmers, a left-handed pitcher bringing a stellar college resume at Louisville with him.
