WMU outfielder Blake Dunn is looking forward to his opportunity to fulfill a lifelong dream of playing professional sports by hearing his name called in the MLB draft.
This year’s MLB draft will have just five rounds compared to the normal 40 due to MLB’s loss of revenue from the coronavirus pandemic. The first round will take place on Wednesday, with rounds two through five happening on Thursday.
D1Baseball ranked Dunn No. 95 among their top 250 prospects in 2020, complimenting his speed while pointing out that in order to reach the MLB he will need to cut down on his strikeouts and increase his power numbers.
