    View Draft Report
    Georgia came on strong down the stretch to post the best record in the Southeastern Conference, and the coaching staff credited junior C Clint Sammons for much of the surge. He has Team USA experience (2002, when his stint with the team was cut short by a broken thumb), and his catch-and-throw tools are ahead of his bat; he's shown little power potential, but was closing the season with a flourish. With Sammons, the difference is more significant as it should raise his draft profile.
