The Atlanta Braves could continue a trend of finding hidden value with their first round pick in this summer's MLB Draft

He suffered an elbow injury in 2022 that required Tommy John surgery and kept him out for the entire year. He returned as a position player last season, getting some run on the mound but being carefully managed as he returned from the injury.
