2022 Prospect Draft by Position, Team, and Birth Year

[Moorestown Big Dogs]

90 total picks were used this year, as we had a few holdovers from last year.

Catchers 5
First Base 4
Second Base 5
Shortstop 17
Third Base 6
Outfielders 21
Right Handed Pitchers 21
Left Handed Pitchers 7

Relief Pitchers 4


I have added birth year as a category, thought it was interesting to see the wide range of ages involved.

95 - 2, 96 - 1, 97 - 11, 98 - 10, 99 - 14, 00 - 14, 01 - 11, 02 - 12, 03 - 10, 04 - 4, 05 - 1
So an 11 year range with only a couple from the first 2 and last 2 years, but a very steady of a dozen from the middle 7 years.


And the breakdown by Major League team:


6 players drafted: Yankees (and 5 of them SS!)
5 players drafted: Texas, Dodgers, Seattle, Cleveland, St Louis, Cubs
4 players drafted: Pittsburgh, Kansas City, Miami, San Francisco
3 players drafted: Baltimore, Tampa Bay, Minnesota, Milwaukee, Washington, Cincinnati, San Diego
2 players drafted: Boston, Arizona, Angels, Toronto, Atlanta, White Sox
1 player drafted: Detroit, Colorado, Philadelphia, Houston, Oakland
No players drafted: Mets (and they only had 1 last year)

[Team Canada]

Nice analysis. Glad I was there to help out the relief pitcher numbers, almost added another(merryweather) lol

Always interesting to look back about 5 years to see who drafted late gems and early busts

Not sure what to think there as a Mets fan with 1 pick in 2 years...

[Moorestown Big Dogs]

I hear ya, Blue Flames. I have been a Met fan for 58 years now, since I began using a Met glove as a pillow when I was 2. Maybe Cohen's billions will mean we don't need prospects, lol.
