2019 Squeeze Play Mock Draft

Michael Conforto (NYM - OF)
Draft: This team has few holes but it is a little top heavy in pitching when compared to its offense which leads to speculation that MLB ready offense is the way to go here. Much like Wildcard, the selection will likely come down to Stephen Piscotty (Oak - OF), Jake Bauers (Cle - 1B), Yuniel Diaz (Bal - OF) or even Max Kemper (Min - OF) if that is the vein chosen. 

Prediction:
RD 1: Stephen Piscotty (Oak - OF) - See above
RD 2: Wilson Ramos (NYM - C) - Will need a catcher and Ramos is a fine fantasy backstop
RD 3: Gregg Holland (Ari - RP) - If Bradley doesn't close, its likely Holland gets call
RD 4: Drew Steckenrider (Mia - RP) - Rule-5 Draftee
RD 5: Francisco Morales (Phi - SP) - Keeper
RD 6: Gabriel Arias (SD-SS) - Keeper

Prospect Draft:
RD 1: Luis Gil (NYY - SP) - Some view him as a breakout prospect with great K rate
RD 2: Cal Stevenson (Tor - OF) - Underrated bat that continues to succeed
RD 3: Jose Rodriguez (Sea - SS) - Keeper
