Bennett Klimesh, RHP from Trinity U.
Re: Official 2012 Draft Day Thread (Day 2)
last 6 picks have been 1 HS and 4 college pitchers and Peterson, the SS.
Re: Official 2012 Draft Day Thread (Day 2)
That's the end of day two.
Re: Official 2012 Draft Day Thread (Day 2)
Ben Klemish throws 91-96 MPH, big strikeout numbers at a smaller school. Not the best walk rate either though. Senior, so assuming he wants to keep playing baseball, he will sign.
