Rangers select Texas Tech 3B Josh Jung No. 8 overall in MLB draft
The pick is in for the Texas Rangers.
With the No. 8 overall pick in the MLB draft, the Rangers selected third baseman Josh Jung out of Texas Tech.
From SportsDay's Evan Grant on Sunday: "If the Rangers were ever going to draft to fill a need, Jung would be the guy. An elite college hitter who could move fast through the system to fill a position at which the team is noticeably weak in the farm system. There are questions about his athleticism at third and how much power he will hit for. That makes drafting to fill a need even riskier."
