The Boston Red Sox made notable picks on Day 2 of the MLB Draft, starting with unranked pitcher
Lucas Davenport
from Baylor University in the fifth round. They continued a trend of selecting tall college pitchers, adding
Brett Lanman
and
Josh Volmerding
. The Sox also secured high school prospects
Martin Shelar
, an outfielder with power potential, and
Kaleb LaFavor
, a 6-7 righty, in the ninth and tenth rounds, respectively. The team aims to leverage bonus pool money to entice these young talents away from college commitments.
