Cody Roberts and Zack Gahagan taken on final day of MLB Draft

Posted Jun 16, 2017
Catcher Cody Roberts got the call in the 38th round by the Miami Marlins, where he will be joining teammate Miller with the Fish. Somewhat surprisingly, the Marlins decided to list Roberts as a right-handed pitcher instead of a catcher. Zack Gahagan, who was used all over the infield in his time with the Heels, got the call in the 39th round as a pick of the Cincinnati Reds. (Tar Heel Blog)
