Nine Alum Selected in MLB Draft

 

Nine former Baseball U players were selected in the 2017 Major League Baseball Draft.

With these nine players selected Baseball U has now had a total of 96 players selected in the organizations first 11 MLB Drafts.

In the past 6 MLB Drafts Baseball U has had one of their former players selected in the first round and a total of 8 players have been taken in the first round

in those 6 MLB Drafts.

To see so many players move on and live their dream is exactly the reason why Baseball U was started. So many people play a part in these players success

from their Tee-Ball coach all the way up and let's not forget mom, dad, grandma and grandpa who got this all started. It takes a huge sacrafice for a family to

bring them to this point in their lives. It is a huge commitment and we could not be happier for all of them.
