Rob Metzler, the recently minted Rays Director of Scouting, took over in a transition from R.J. Harrison this season, and was at the helm when the Rays selected one high school player (Joshua Lowe - 13th overall pick) and two college players (Ryan Boldt - 53rd and Jake Fraley - 77th) in the first two rounds of the 2016 MLB Draft.
"We are very pleased with the outcome today," said Metzler, "Josh Lowe, Ryan Boldt and Jake Fraley are three athletic players we think can contribute to the organization offensively and defensively. Very very good athletes.
