MLB 2009 Mock Draft
AUTHOR: Michael | IN: Orioles General | COMMENTS: 2 Comments |
Here is my MLB mock draft that will take place Tuesday. I believe that Tyler Matzek will be the best pitcher left on the board. With the pitching jams that will occur over the next few seasons, drafting a high school pitcher makes most sence and put him in low single-A. He is also a left handed pitcher which makes me believe he will go ahead of Wheeler.

Pittsburgh Pirates should be always competitive enough to keep pace with the others. I really like them; they’ve always been my favourite teams in MLB. Just read about them here:
