MLB Draft Insider - Mock

Rank	Name	Position	School	Previous
01	Brady Aiken	LHP	Cathedral Catholic HS (Calif.)	07
Honestly, I’m as surprised as you are. But when you show four legit major-league pitches with that kind of feel for pitching and are hitting 97 as a left-hander, you are a special prospect. There’s obviously a long way to go, but Aiken has separated himself in a very short time.

02	Carlos Rodon	LHP	N.C. State	01
Again, I’m as surprised as you are. Rodon certainly hasn’t been abhorrent or anything of the sort, but the fastball command still isn’t there. I’ll be surprised if Rodon is still in this position when we get into May.

03	Tyler Kolek	RHP	Shepherd HS (Tex.)	04
I actually considered putting Kolek ahead of Rodon, but at the end of the day I couldn’t pull the trigger. That being said, Kolek has been sensational this year, and has a legit chance of being the first prep right-hander to ever go No. 1. He throws hard.

04	Grant Holmes	RHP	Conway HS (S.C.)	09
I second-guessed myself the moment I had Holmes outside of the top five last time, and I’m not going to let that happen to me this time. There’s just too much here (three quality pitches, good feel for pitching, ready-now body) to keep him out of the top five.

05	Tyler Beede	RHP	Vanderbilt	06
Beede continues to dominate even in conference play, and the command continues to be impressive, especially when you consider how poor it was last year.

06	Alex Jackson	C/OF	Rancho Bernardo HS (Calif.)	03
Hey! A hitter! I’d say that no position players in the top five is just a case of the pitching being amazing, but, that’d be a lie. Jackson hasn’t been outstanding to start the year, but I think he has the most talent of any hitter — college or prep — in this year’s class.

07	Jeff Hoffman	RHP	East Carolina	02
There’s still an awful lot of baseball to be played, but the fact of the matter is that Hoffman has been mediocre far too often this year to justify putting him in the top five, much less the top two.

Rank	Name	Position	School	Previous
08	Nick Gordon	SS	Olympia HS (Fla.)	13
Gordon has been outstanding all spring and has clearly separated himself from all the other shortstop prospects in the class; and he has a chance to be a dominating reliever if the whole hitting thing doesn’t work out for him. Which is nice.

09.	Bradley Zimmer	OF	San Francisco	19
The more I study Zimmer the more I am impressed; he might be the only five-tool player in this entire class, and there’s a non-zero chance that he ends up in center-field despite being 6’5″.

Rank	Name	Position	School	Previous
10	Luis Ortiz	RHP	Sanger HS (Calif.)	17
Many scouts that I’ve talked to believe that Ortiz is as good — if not better — than every prep pitcher in the class, with two 60 pitches and a prototypical pitcher’s body.
