It’s July. The sun is shining. Baseball is being played. The Seattle Mariners are in prime position to select middle linebacker right-handed bulldozer Kumar Rocker with the first pick in the 2021 draft.
This kid is an absolute unit.
Rocker was actually a 38th round selection by the Colorado Rockies in 2018, but didn’t put ink to paper due to signability concerns. Most evaluators had Rocker being a first round talent in that draft.
As of today, Rocker is the odds-on favorite to go first overall. After an eye-popping freshman campaign in 2019, his stock had never been higher.
