Today, major league baseball finished the first ten rounds of the 2015 draft.

Seven former Valley League players were picked:

Round, Pick, Name, College, VL Team, ML Team

6 182 JC Cardenas, Barry, Front Royal 2013, Toronto Blue Jays
7 204 Luke Leftwich, Wofford, Aldie 2013, Philadelphia Phillies
8 238 Reece Karalus, Santa Clara, Aldie 2014, Tampa Bay Rays

10 303 James Reeves, The Citadel, Staunton 2013, New York Yankees
10 306 Tyler Cyr, Embry-Riddle, Waynesboreo 2014, San Francisco Giants

The first pick this year came in the 6th round, which is the latest first pick since I starting keeping track in 2006. Seven picks through ten rounds is a little low, but not unusual. Here are the numbers in the last five drafts:

2014- 17
2013- 6
2012- 9
2011- 10
2010- 9

Tomorrow rounds 11-40 will be held, so much more draft coverage to come!
