pick for signing Robbie Ray as a free agent
during the off season. The Mariners
drafted more high school pitchers as well
as position players. We now let you know
who they took.
Round Four: Ashton Izzi a 6'3 right handed
high school pitcher from Oswego Illinois.
Right now Ashton throws low 90s on his
fastball. He also throws a slider and changeup.
The Mariners seem to link pitchers who
throw sliders.
Round Five: The Mariners did decide to go
for a college pitcher. A lefty in Reid VanScoter
from Coastal Carolina. Reid had Tommy John
surgery in 2019. He throws several pitches.
I am sure he will begin this career as a starter.
Round Six: The Mariners drafted another
shortstop this one from the college ranks
in Josh Hood from North Carolina State.
Though a shortstop Josh could end up
playing third base. Bats and throws right
handed. Also, hits with power.
Round Seven: Hogan Windish a college
second baseman with power and bats right
handed.
Round Eigth: The Mariners drafted a
catcher in Tatem Levins from Pittsburgh
A left hitting catcher known more his
defense than hitting.
Round Nine: The Mariners went back to a
high school righthanded pitcher in Tyler
Gough from California. He can throw up
to 97 mph on his fastball.
Round Ten: The Mariners picked their
first outfielder in Billy Knight Jr.. He went
to the same college as Kyle Lewis. He
has power and plays a good center field
and bats righthanded.
Next time up we will see how Julio Rodriguez
did in the home run derby.
Tuesday we will see the remaining draft picks.
Later on in the weeks ahead we will see how
these draft picks land in the top prospects.
