nmstatesports - New Mexico State baseball saw its second player drafted Wednesday afternoon when Andrew Edwards was selected in the 31st round (928th overall) by the New York Mets.

"Being a professional baseball player has been a lifelong dream of mine," Edwards said from his home. "It's still so surreal but I am beyond blessed and excited and I cannot wait to get going! Thank you to the Mets organization for the opportunity. Go Mets!"

Edwards joins shortstop Joey Ortiz, who was NM State's highest draft pick (4th round, 108th overall), in this year's 2019 MLB Draft class marking it the first time the Aggies have had multiple players drafted since Daniel Johnson, Joe Galindo and Tyler Erwin went off the board in 2016. He also becomes the third Aggie to be drafted by the Mets and first since Marcel Renteria went in the sixth round back in 2017.
