Brewers’ Garrett Mitchell, author of the walk-off home run Wednesday against the Mets, slipped to pick No. 20 in the 2020 draft despite superior talent.
It can’t be known exactly why 19 teams passed on the UCLA star, said by one scout to be a “top-five talent,” but his diabetic condition may have affected opinions, which seems odd with today’s medicines.
The Mets drafted Pete Crow-Armstrong the pick immediately before Mitchell, and though he looks like a future major league center fielder, they compounded that call by trading him for Javy Baez.
