MLB Mock Draft Version 3.0

Here is my most updated mock draft (previous two are here and here. Again, I have the pick from last time. I should have at 1 more mock right before the MLB draft next week.

I’ve compiled this mock using various scouting reports, news, and other mock drafts and value boards. There have been some really interesting changes, as injuries are hitting and players are rising. I have some of the same teams taking guys from my last mock, but with different picks. There are some many rumors floating around, if I get 5 of these picks correct, I’ll be happy.

Please note: Any changes in picks have an italicized number listed next to the team name. The reason for the change is listed below the mock draft.
