  • After starting the 2020 MLB Draft with two lefty-swinging position players, Robinson Cano Jersey the Yankees close out its cla s with a right-handed pitcher.New York picked Beck Way out ofNorthwest Florida State Junior Collegewith the No. 129 selection.Way, 20, is ranked as the No. 95 prospect in MLB Pipeline's top 200. Baseball America had him at No. 84 and called him the top junior college prospect. Listed at 6-foot-6, 200 pounds, the product of Mechanicsburg, Pa., is committed to transfer to LSU. The Yankees will hope to change that.With the Cotuit Kettleers in the Cape Cod League this past summer, Way was dynamic out of the bullpen. In 11 games and 13 2/3 innings pitched, the righty had 18 strikeouts and a 3.29 ERA.If you think those numbers were impre sive, get this. In a coronavirus-shortened campaign this spring, Way had Gary Carter Jersey a spotle s 5-0 record with a 0.67 ERA acro s seven games.Scroll to Continue"It's a great day for Beck and his family," Way's head coach Doug Martin told the .

He doesnt use his mid-80s changeup much, but hes athletic enough to believe it will be an effective offering in the future.In the past, Way had struggled with his command, but in a starting role this spring, he was much more consistent in finding the strike zone. The team that takes him early enough to keep him from moving on to LSU will think the projectable right-hander has the chance to start long-term, knowing that the fastball-slider Tom Seaver Jersey combination will work really well out of a bullpen.Way joins both and to round out the Yankees' 2020 MLB Draft cla s. Wells and Hauver both left-handed hitters out of the Pac-12 Conference were picked in the first and third rounds respectively.
