When the Mariners make their pick at 6th overall in June of 2020, it will be their highest draft pick in the Jerry Dipoto era and the importance of the selection could not be overstated. But while most of our discussions will center around which college arm Dipoto likes most, we can’t discount the possibility that he takes a bat.
This will be Dipoto’s 5th draft with the team and he has selected two bats, Kyle Lewis and Evan White, as well as 2 arms, George Kirby and Logan Gilbert, with his 4 first-round selections.
