The 2015 Major League Draft takes place June 8-10. In advance of the draft, Prep Baseball Report is posting a summary of each state in the coverage area with scouting reports on the top high school draft prospects.
The last Pennsylvania prep product to be selected in the first round was LHP Jesse Biddle, who went 27th overall to the Phillies in 2010. While his spring has been inconsistent, RHP Mike Nikorak (Stroudsburg HS, PA) may not last that long in this draft. Beyond Nikorak, a handful of prospects have a chance to go in the top 10 rounds, depending on their signability of course.
Top Prospects
1. Mike Nikorak, RHP, Stroudsburg HS, PA
The 6-foot-5, 205-pound Alabama signee had a perplexing season, flashing high-end stuff while also losing velocity later in outings and struggling with his command.
