2012 Where are they now 2009 MLB draft picks 33 to 40

The 2012 season is behind us and I'm checking how picks 33 to 40 of the 2009 draft did this season. Traditionally players drafted out of college advance faster than those drafted out of high school and pitchers usually advance faster than position players. Some players might also be traded to help their team get an established player that can help their team improve immediately.

The Seattle Mariners drafted catcher Steven Baron 33rd out of John A. Ferguson School in Miami, FL. He played 2012 at Class A Clinton. He hit .241/.280/.378 with 4 HR, 30 RBI, 29 R, 10 SB in 64 games.

The Colorado Rockies drafted LHP Rex Brothers 34th out of Lipscomb University. He split 2012 between Triple A Colorado Springs and the Rockies. He was 0-0 with a 1.69 ERA, 13 K, 1.12 WHIP, 1 SV in 5.1 IP over 4 games at Colorado Springs and was 8-2 with a 3.86 ERA, 83 K, 1.48 WHIP in 67.2 IP over 75 games with the Rockies.

The Arizona Diamondbacks drafted third baseman Matthew Davidson 35th out of Yucaipa High School in Yucaipa, CA. He played 2012 at Double A Mobile. He hit .261/.367/.469 with 23 HR, 76 RBI, 81 R, 3 SB in 135 games.

The Toronto Blue Jays drafted LHP James Paxton 37th out of Kentucky. He tried to return to Kentucky for his senior season but left the team due to issues with the NCAA. He was drafted by the Seattle Mariners in the fourth round in 2010. He pitched 2012 at Double A Jackson. He was 9-4 with a 3.05 ERA, 110 K, 1.41 WHIP in 106.1 IP over 21 games.
