The Brewers selected a pair of left-handed pitchers in the first two rounds of last night’s Major League Baseball Draft. At number 28 in the first round the Brewers chose Ethan Small of Mississippi State. Brewers amateur scouting director, Tod Johnson, called Small “the consummate pitcher”, explaining he throws a ton of strikes and gets a ton of swings and misses.” Then, in the 2nd round of the draft with the 65th pick, Milwaukee selected Antoine Kelly, a southpaw from Wabash Valley Community College. A scouting report on the 6-6 Kelly is after adding 20-pounds over the past year and improving his mechanics, he’s now dealing in the upper 90’s. The draft resumes today with rounds 3-thru-10, while the remaining 30 rounds take place tomorrow.
