With the College World Series wrapped up and the draft about two weeks away, it is now peak mock draft season. It seems like one comes out every other day. Since the Washington Nationals are selecting first overall, we have been keeping up with a lot of the mocks.

Yesterday, the great folks over at Baseball America put out a mock draft. The site is paywalled and very much worth the price of subscription, so I won’t give too much away. However, they do have the Nationals taking LSU pitcher Kade Anderson first overall.

Anderson is the top ranked college player on most draft boards now after a dominant College World Series.
