Summary
The Texas Rangers made a big splash in the MLB draft, snagging 19-year-old lefty Gio Rojas with the 16th overall pick — a top-tier high school arm with a 98 mph fastball and a nasty slider, ranked as the eighth-best prospect by MLB Pipeline. Coming from the storied Marjory Stoneman Douglas program, Rojas was a surprise faller, and his selection signals the Rangers’ serious commitment to rebuilding their pitching staff with elite young talent. Already with Team USA experience and elite command, Rojas is poised to be a cornerstone of their future — and they’ve got more picks to keep building depth.
