| Braves draft OF Jason Heyward The Atlanta Braves selected high school outfielder Jason Heyward with the 14th overall pick in today's MLB Draft. According to the scouting report on this kid over at Yahoo! Sports, Heyward "Has shown tremendous versatility, playing center field and first base and pitching during career, but projects as a right fielder at next level because of strong arm. Extremely patient at plate and rarely gets fooled. Bat speed and left-handed raw power should help him become slugger in pros. Was hitting .520 with eight HRs and 29 RBIs, along with 17 SBs this season." You like this pick, Braves fans? |
