2012 MLB Draft Top 100 Prospects 1.0

The strength of the 2012 MLB Draft is clearly going to be its high school bats. In the early going it doesn’t seem that we’ll see the type of college pitching that we saw drafted in 2011. The top of the class is much more in flux than it was in 2011, but despite its weaknesses, this is not a draft to be underestimated….

1. Mark Appel, RHP, Stanford
2. Lucas Giolito, RHP, Harvard-Westlake H.S. (Calif.)
3. Byron Buxton, OF, Appling County H.S. (Ga.)
4. Mike Zunino, C, Florida
5. Max Fried, LHP, Harvard-Westlake H.S. (Calif.)
6. David Dahl, OF, Oak Mountain H.S. (Ala.)

I’m pretty sure Fried Zunino was an appetizer at the Italian place I ate at last weekend.
