Donavan Tate may drop to 2nd round in MLB Draft

Posted Jun 6, 2009
With teams in meetings trying to line up things, variables like signability or injury risk can shake things up in a hurry. The best example of this comes in the form of Donavan Tate. The outfielder from Georgia is generally considered to be the best high school position player prospect, a tremendous athlete. He's also a two-sport star with a commitment to North Carolina to play football and baseball. Couple that with advisor Scott Boras and placing him in the first round is difficult to do. (MLB.com)
