There are no major holes in the Dodgers’ farm system, so picking for need is a pitfall they can avoid during this week's coronavirus-shortened draft.
The president of baseball operations won’t be in a room with his colleagues overseeing animated discussion. He’ll be alone in his Dodger Stadium office, down the left field line, orchestrating his organization’s decisions through computers. A camera will be mounted nearby for a national audience to occasionally peek into his space for Major League Baseball’s first official eventwith heated negotiations for the league’s return in 2020 serving as the unfortunate backdrop.
The Dodgers own six picks in this draft, starting with the 29th overall selection. In a video call with reporters last month, Billy Gasparino, the Dodgers’ director of amateur scouting, noted that this draft is the deepest in at least five years. He said the talent pool’s strengths are in college pitchers and high school position players.
The Dodgers have used 22 of their 30 picks in the first five rounds on college players since 2015, but they have not feared taking chances on high school talent such as Gavin Lux and Dustin May. This year, mock drafts — crapshoots even in normal years — have connected them to players from both groups with their first-round pick.
