Sports Illustrated Mock Draft

16

SI has Carlos Correa making it to the Bucs, with the Cubs taking Wacha, and the Padres drafting Giolito. UPDATE from David: I'm not familiar with the guy from SI who did this mock, but he seems to have a very good sense of what he is writing about. It will be interesting to see if the Pads are on Giolito at all. His idea of them being a local team and getting a hometown "discount" to not go to UCLA at least sounds plausible. I would look at Correa falling to the Pirates much the same way DeCastro fell to the Steelers. Everything has to break just right and this is without any trades taking place. Giolito going in the top seven picks would be the biggest of those things.
