MLB: Famous journalist predicts that Andrew Jones’s son will be in the Top 10 of the 2022 Draft

Speaking of tall draft picks, the top of the draft class of 2022 appears to be full of position players, with popular journalist Jim Callis of MLB Pipeline predicting that “at least eight batters will be in the first 10 picks”.

This appears to be due to both a lack of outstanding college pitching, and an above-average pool of hitters at both the college and high school levels:

high school students Druw Jones (son of former Atlanta Braves star Andruw Jones) and Termarr Johnson they rate particularly well under Callis, who ranks Jones and Johnson behind only Bobby Witt Jr as the top position prospects from the 2019-22 draft classes.

Witt was chosen second overall in 2019 and has two seasons on the farms of the Kansas City Royals. Jones is 18 years old and 1.90 meters tall, while shortstop Johnson is 17 years old and 1.78 meters tall.

I am a fan of the King of Sports, especially the Boston Red Sox in MLB and all Mexican baseball in general. This profession has given me the opportunity to cover major events such as the Caribbean Series, LMB All Star, LMP (uninterruptedly since 2009), signatures of important players. I had the chance to attend the 2013 World Classic in Arizona, USA, although as a fan. Apart from this beautiful sport, I love basketball, where I have also narrated games and even an NBA friendly 10 years ago, but I have baseball in my veins. Degree in Communication Sciences from the Autonomous University of Sinaloa (UAS) , from which I graduated in 2011. I was born in Mazatlán, Sinaloa and started in the world of sports journalism in 2004 in the newspaper El Sol de Mazatlán, where I was a baseball columnist and a reporter at the same time. In January 2009 I arrived at El Debate as a journalist reporter and it was almost six years (in the first stage), until in November 2014 I emigrated to the radio providing my services at Línea Directa-Grupo RSN. My cycle there ended in July 2019 and a few days later, El Debate gave me another opportunity to work and opened the doors for me again. That is how I came to Al Bat, where I have been since 2019 as a web journalist.
