2011 Draft Recap

June 9, 2011

Another draft has come and gone. After a three day marathon of picks, the Indians have 50 potential new players that they have added to the organization. Now the work gets started with signing them.
Here is the rundown with everything you need to know about each of the Indians 50 selections in the 2011 Draft. To see information, capsules, scouting reports, video, and so on for each player, just click on their name. Some of the information for the players will continue to be updated throughout the next few months.
Overall, of the 50 players selected 20 were right-handed pitchers, 8 were left-handed pitchers, and 22 were position players. They selected 33 college players and 17 players in high school.
I will also be providing signing updates on all of their pages either to confirm their signing, or to report on what they may be looking for and if they may or not sign. This listing will be housed on the right side of the page under the General Reference heading (2011 Draft) and a banner linking out to it will also be added soon to the top right part of the page for easy reference. Posts will be made often with any signings or news that comes available, so be sure to look up "2011 Draft News" under the labels section.
