Wow that's shocking!!!! I really like Mitchell, but until he learns to hit a curveball he's stuck in the minors.
He was projected to go anywhere from 25-35. Congrats to Jared. LSU Pitching prospect, Heathcott went 29th to the Yankees. They will give him the money he is looking for.
The scouting report on JM is not that great. mlb.com pretty much says speed is his only plus at this stage in the game and everything else is projection. I hope it works out for him, he is from my home town after all. Last 2 from there were cory raymond and another DB that played for cinn. Can't remember his name right now.
Congrats to Jared, that's awesome! A 2 minute video from the MLB network: Jared Mitchell gets drafted LSU threw together a nice 6 minute highlight package of Jared: Jared Mitchell highlight video
