It is time to start preparing for the MLB draft! We kick off our mock drafts with our sixth and final go-round today!

The MLB Draft will be held June 4th through the 6th. It can be viewed on MLB Network and online on MLB.com. However, pre-draft, one of the most exciting parts of preparing for the draft is putting together mock drafts of just how things could break down.

Our mock MLB draft work is done by Benjamin Chase, one of our editors here with Call To The Pen. Ben works with contacts around the game to attempt to find out if there are teams and players getting connected together or players rising that could surprise us by going earlier or later than selected. We will have a new mock MLB draft each Monday all the way until June 4, with each mock being through the CBA selections between the first and second round until that last mock, when Ben drinks some extra coffee and goes all the way through the second batch of competitive balance picks between rounds 2 and 3 on draft day.

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!
