MLB Draft brings big choice for High School stars

With the MLB Draft underway today and running until the end of the 50th round tomorrow, the honor of being selected by a professional club to be one of their future stars comes with a big decision, mainly for those right out of high school.

Two Kamehameha-Hawaii players are widely considered for the draft this year, including Kolten Wong, who many people believe may go around the 10th round, and Blake Amaral. These are two of many different high school players around the country who are being selected in the entry level draft.

While it is a no-brainer that the Number One overall pick, SS Tim Beckham of Griffin, GA, a graduating high school senior, will take the offer of being the number one pick and go to the farm system in the Rays Organization, other high schoolers picked in the lower rounds won't have that easy of a choice.

Many of these high schoolers have already committed to play collgeiate baseball. he big question is whether these players want to sacrifice two things:

1) Quality Education

2) The natural graduation from high school - college - professional is natural and more progressive.

In the end, the choice is up to the kids, or should I say, the young adults, and what is best for them, Hopefully, they make the right choice.
