In this final MLB mock draft, Call to the Pen writer Benjamin Chase reviews as if he was the GM of each organization.

We at Call to the Pen have been offering plenty of MLB draft coverage over the last week. In this final edition, contributor Benjamin Chase covers two rounds of selections as if he were in the GM chair for each organization, based on what he has heard on each prospect over the course of the spring.

These will be who Ben would select, not who he believes the team would select. Therefore, there will be players that may go much earlier on Monday or Tuesday that will not be picked here for other reasons.

Monday evening there will be a live post on the draft where Ben will post analysis on each pick made. He’ll also be offering coverage on Tuesday and Wednesday on the draft. Let’s get started with this final mock!

I live in rural South Dakota, where I picked up the love of baseball from my great grandmother and my grandfather. I've enjoyed passing on the game to my nephews and now to my own children. I love evaluating the minor leagues and often have a game on the computer and the TV at the same time!
