2024 MLB Draft July 14th - July 16th - Tigers Draft SS Bryce Rainer 1st Round

[gotime909]

I really don't know any of these kids, but I was watching the tigers ML report stream and Chris Brown likes him alot and I generally fall in line with what he says. 6'3" athletic kid who is definitely expected to stick at SS.

 

[gotime909]

lefthanded power hitting shortstop has a good ring to it.

Braden Montgomery went next so we'll have our usual debate about taking the HS kid over the fast track college bat.

Scouting grades: Hit: 55 | Power: 60 | Run: 55 | Arm: 60 | Field: 50 | Overall: 60

Though a MLB Network guy said the arm is 70.

Big lefty ss with pop. If he's 75% of Seager I'll take it.

Seattle Mariner just selected a switch pitcher. Cool.
