2022 MLB Draft: Washington Nationals draft LHP Jake Bennett again; 45th overall in 2nd Round

Washington’s Nationals selected left-handed pitcher Jake Bennett out of high school, in the 39th Round in 2019, taking the southpaw with the 1,173rd overall pick, but he opted to go to the University of Oklahoma, joining high school teammate Cade Cavalli with the Sooners in the season Cavalli was drafted by the Nats 22nd overall in the 1st Round in 2020.

Had someone told Bennett back in 2019 he would end up getting selected by the Nationals again, with the 45th overall pick in the 2nd round this time, and would end up in the same organization as his high school and college teammate?
