Vanderbilt Post MLB Draft Signing Day Baseball Mail Bag: Answers to Your Questions

How did the rest of the conference do re: incoming players getting drafted?

*Author’s note: In case you were wondering why this mail bag took so long to answer, it’s because of this question.

Vanderbilt got hit the hardest in this year’s draft, and it wasn’t particularly close. I was expecting two to three more players in this recruiting class to make it to campus. Those players would have been Noah Schultz, Sal Stewart, and Ryan Clifford. Both Schultz and Clifford were taken in the first round, and paid the big bucks. That was very surprising for Stewart, most scouting services pegged him around the 90th best player in the draft, and the Reds gave him around $2.
