Oklahoma State had six selections in the first two days of the MLB Draft, including three pitchers late on the second day.
In the first four rounds, OSU earned three selections in the MLB Draft, with Carson Benge, Brian Holiday and Zach Ehrhard all seeing their dreams become reality. On the second day of the draft, another three players followed the earlier selections of Holiday and Ehrhard.
Last season, the Cowboys had an impressive pitching lineup and that was reflected on Monday, with four pitchers getting selected. Although Holiday going in the third round headlined the Cowboys’ second day, he was far from the only talent on the mound headed to the major leagues.
