MLB draft

Stranger things have happened.
But how many players become Major Leaguers after being drafted beyond the 30th round?
If you're counting, that's about 700 players drafted in front of you.
I know it's tempting for Skyler Crawford and Abe Ruiz, who were both drafted Friday in Major League Baseball's amateur draft.
Crawford, who prepped at Salinas High, has a decision to make. This is the second straight year the Florida Marlins have drafted the Hartnell College prodigy.
This time the Marlins grabbed him 11 rounds higher at No. 30. He has leverage.
Obviously, they're interested in the right-hander and his 92 mph fastball. But he also has a full ride scholarhsip to play baseball at Cal.
Do you want to go to Cal and experience a big-time program. Or do you want to end up in a rural town playing in front of 600 people in a Rookie League?
Depends on the money I suppose.
Ruiz went in the 47th round as a third baseman. It should be a no-brainer that the recent Pacific Grove graduate will keep his athletic scholarship to Arizona State.
Of course, he'll have to wait until his junior year in college to see his name on the draft board again.
He'll be drafted again.
