A total of 56 players involved in this year's College World Series were selected in MLB's recently completed draft, some more notable than others. From the top overall selection to those whose names weren't called until late on Day 3, all three days of the draft are represented in Omaha, Nebraska.
The double-elimination tournament gives fans their first chance to see those players in action, and while there's a big difference between college ball and the professional ranks, we can at least begin to see how the scouting reports actually translate on the field.
From sluggers to all-around hitters and power pitchers, there's something for everyone when action gets under way Saturday afternoon at TD Ameritrade Park in Omaha.
What follows is an entirely subjective ranking of the 10 must-watch draft picks who will be in action. These are the players that I'm particularly interested to see take the field, and while many of the draft's top-rated players are included, not every player on this list was a high draft pick.
Who made the cut? Let's take a look.
