It almost seems like the MLB Amateur Draft is pure nonsense. Most top prospects never amount to much, but kudos to the 10 players on this list that were drafted #1 overall and went on to perform at a high level
1. Ken Griffey Jr. (Seattle, 1987)
Junior is one of the best players of all-time. He’s the kid with the smooth stroke killer instincts in the outfield. Griffey finished his career with 630 homeruns, which ranks him 4th all-time.
