Four St. John’s pitchers taken in 2019 MLB Draft
Photo by Rich Schultz/Getty ImagesThe 2019 MLB Draft last week saw future stars selected to join the competition to play on baseball’s greatest stage.
St. John’s did not hear any players called on the first day, June 3rd; the Baltimore Orioles selected C Adley Rutschman from Oregon State with the first overall pick. But St. John’s stellar pitching staff had a quartet of players picked from the junior class.
As juniors, each has an opportunity to return for a senior season instead of moving on to the minors.
