The 2013 season is behind us and I'm checking how picks 51 to 60 (which closed out the first round) of the 2011 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 New York Yankees drafted third baseman Dante Bichette Jr 51st out of Orangewood Christian School in Maitland, FL. He played in 2013 at Class A Charleston. He hit .214/.292/.331 with 11 HR, 61 RBI, 47 R, 1 SB in 114 games.
The Tampa Bay Rays drafted LHP Blake Snell 52nd out of Shorewood High School in Shoreline, WA. He pitched in 2013 at Class A Bowling Green. He was 4-9, 4.27 ERA, 106 K, 1.65 WHIP in 99.0 IP over 23 games.
The Toronto Blue Jays drafted outfielder Dwight Smith 53rd out of McIntosh High School in McIntosh, GA. He played in 2013 at Class A Lansing. He hit .284/.365/.388 with 7 HR, 46 RBI, 57 R, 25 SB in 109 games.
