Joel Welser MLB Mock Draft

Joel Welser MLB Mock Draft -

Round 1
1		Houston	Mark Appel	P	Stanford
It has been a while since there has not been a clear cut number one pick in the draft. Mark Appel is a big pitcher at 6-5 who has done a fine job at Stanford. The Astros have many options here, but for now taking Appel makes the most sense.

Some seem to like Deven Marrero a lot more than others. He does not have a lot of power, but he is an all-around great player. He is a natural shortstop and has few flaws defensively. His junior season at Arizona State, especially at the plate, will go a long way in determining if he is worth the third overall pick or if he slides down the board. 12 New York Mets Victor Roache 1B/OF Georgia Southern Victor Roache may be the best pure hitter in the collegiate ranks. In 2011 as a sophomore he hit 30 home runs. And that was in a season when most of the collegiate players took a step back offensively due to the new bat. 35 New York Mets Clate Schmidt P High School Clate Schmidt is just one of those players you want on your side. He is a hardworker and could play shortstop or pitcher at the next level. His recent performances on the mound have him pegged as a pitcher for now. for the rest of the list...    http://www.collegesportsmadness.com/article/3004 ................
