As expected, Tim Beckham of Griffin High School was the No. 1 high school player selected in the 2008 Major League Baseball amateur draft on Thursday when the Tampa Rays chose him with the first pick in the entire draft.
What wasn’t expected is that the Rays would also select his brother, Jeremy, who is a senior at Georgia Southern University. Both Beckhams play shortstop with the younger Beckham batting .482 this year with six home runs 41 RBI and 58 runs scored, according to MLB.com.
Beckham was one of 29 high school players chosen from the state of Georgia, making the Peach State the fourth most popular home for MLB draftees. California topped the list with 90 selections while Florida had 52, and Texas 38. Following Georgia, Illinois had 21 and Arizona had 20.
Beckham was also one of eight high school players chosen in the first round (not including the compensatory picks at the end of the round). Eric Hosmer of American Heritage (Fla.) was chosen with the No. 3 pick by Kansas City while Kyle Skipworth of Patriot (Calif.) was No. 6 to the Marlins, Aaron Hicks of Long Beach Wilson (Calif.) was No. 14 to the Twins, Ethan Martin of Stephens County (Ga.), was No. 15 to the Dodgers, Anthony Hewitt of Salisbury School (Conn.) was No. 24 to the Phillies, Gerrit Cole of Orange Lutheran (Calif.) was No. 28 to the Yankees and Casey Kelly of Sarasota (Fla.) was No. 30 to the Red Sox.
The highest rising player in the draft, based on preseason rankings by Baseball America, was Hewitt, a shortstop from the Salisbury School, which plays in the Connatonic League in Connecticut. Salisbury was 20-0 on the season thanks in large part to Hewitt, who hit .536 with eight home runs in just 56 at-bats. Projected as a third baseman, according to Phillynews.com, Hewitt was not ranked among the nation’s top 100 players at the beginning of the season, yet was the sixth high school player taken on Thursday.
Hewitt has already committed to play at Vanderbilt, but is expected to sign with the Phillies. Hewitt likely caught the attention of pro scouts at the Orlando National Baseball Classic where he batted .769 (10-13) with a double, a triple and a home run.
Philadelphia also went with a rising high school outfielder with one of its first round compensatory picks, selecting Zach Collier of Chino Hills (Calif.). Like Hewitt, Collier was not among the top 100 players on Baseball America’s preseason list, but he rapidly rose among the ranks of high school outfield prospects and was the second high school outfielder chosen behind Hicks.
Two other players who were unranked at the beginning of the year but found their way into the first round were Jordan Lyles of Hartsville (S.C.), and Jaff Decker of Sunrise Mountain (Ariz.).
Lyles, a pitcher, was chosen by the Astros with a compensatory pick at the No. 38 slot. Lyles was an all-state player for Hartsville, but was not the state MVP. That honor went to Jimmy Revan of Boiling Springs.
Decker, the No. 42 choice by the Padres, played outfield for Sunrise Mountain, which lost to Horizon in the Arizona Class 5A Div. 2 finals. Decker was the named the state MVP after setting a state record for career average at .537. The outfielder batted .565 this year with 17 home runs. He was also 9-1 on the mound with 122 strikeouts in 68.2 innings.
Among those who saw their stock slide were pitcher Tim Melville of Holt (Mo.), infielder Harold Martinez of Braddock and pitcher Alex Meyer of Greensburg (Ind.).
Melville, considered the No. 2 prospect in the country at the beginning of the season and the No. 1 righthanded pitcher, was 41st high school player chosen, going to the Royals with the 115th pick in the third round.
Martinez dropped to the No. 573 pick, going to the Rangers. Martinez was ranked as the No. 7 player in the country entering the season by Baseball America. Meyer, meanwhile, was the No. 8 preseason player, but he was chosen with the No. 622 pick by the Red Sox. No. 9 preseason pick Sonny Gray of Smyrna slid to the No. 821 pick by the Cubs, but that was expected since he sent all MLB clubs a memo stating that he planned to fulfill his obligation to play at Vanderbilt.
A total of 49 schools had at least two players chosen in last week’s draft with three schools having four players selected. Chaparral (Ariz.), the Class 4A Div. 1 champion, had Daniel Coulombe (LHP), Ryan Scott (C), Matthew Summers (RHP) and Royce Bolinger (RF) chosen. American Heritage (Fla.), currently the No. 1 team in the country by MaxPreps, had Hosmer (1B), Adrian Nieto (C), Juan Carlos Sulbaran (RHP) and Joseph Belviso (OF), while Jupiter (Fla.) had Jack Armstrong (RHP), Tyler Thompson (CF), Logan Thompson (SS) and Taylor Davis (C).
All totaled, 451 high school players were chosen out of the 1,504 selections over the two-day draft.
