    View Draft Report
    Six-foot-6, 240-pound RHP Seth McClung is one of the most powerful players in the draft. He holds his high school's career and season home run and strikeout records and is a delight for scouts who rely on radar-gun readings. His fastball routinely hits 95 mph. McClung goes out and throws it hard with little finesse. He has little feel for the finer points of pitching. The Orioles are a prime candidate to pick him with one of their extra picks in the first and sandwich rounds. McClung has played on the Oriolander youth teams the Orioles sponsor each year.
