The race for the number one pick in the MLB Draft has been wide open. Since the college baseball season started, I have written about at least half a dozen names that could go with the number 1 pick in the draft. I thought I had all my bases covered, but a new contender has risen to the forefront, left handed pitcher Kade Anderson from LSU.
As a draft eligible sophomore who had one good but not great year at LSU, Anderson was under the radar heading into the season. There were bigger names with longer resumes like Jamie Arnold and Tyler Bremner.
