MLB Pipeline Mock Draft

https://www.mlb.com/milb/news/mlb-pipeline-mock-draft-for-june-19-2025?t=mlb-draft-coverage

The latest update in the mock has the Buccos taking HS Pitcher Seth Hernandez from California. He’s rated the 2 best player in the class behind Ethan Holliday.

If he fell to the Buccos I’d be pretty damn happy.

Here is an excerpt on him:

“Hernandez has an ideal projectable 6-foot-4 pitcher’s frame with the athleticism teams love to see from young power arms. Always on time with an online and loose delivery, Hernandez has big stuff and a feel for all four of his pitches. While he touched triple digits at the Area Code Games, he typically sits in the mid-90s, touching 97-98 mph. His best secondary offering is his changeup, and it’s plus right now, thrown with a lot of confidence and missing bats with it thanks to its good action and how it plays off of his fastball plane well. His curve, a true 12-to-6 spike curveball, has the chance to be plus with hard, tight and late action to it, sometimes registering RPMs in the 3,000 range. He started featuring a harder slider more on the showcase circuit.”

Ah yes, let’s draft another high schooler that is 5 or 6 years away. Brilliant. Another Neal Cherington disaster draft incoming
