With the No. 56 pick in the draft, the Rays selected infielder Tyler Frank from Florida Atlantic University.
In its third mock draft, FanGraphs actually predicted the Rays would select Frank, albeit with the No. 71 pick.
Baseball America ranked Frank as the No. 67 player in the class, and FanGraphs wasn’t far behind at No. 69. MLB.com ranked him 73rd.
With their first four picks, the Rays have now selected a high school hitter, high school pitcher, college hitter, and college pitcher. They have two pitchers, an infielder, and an outfielder.
