Paul Skenes and Dylan Crews, who went 1-2 in the MLB Draft last July, have both gotten invitations to Major League spring training from the Pittsburgh Pirates and Washington Nationals, respectively.
After winning the National Championship this past season, LSU baseball coach Jay Johnson stopped by the MLB Network to dish on his former players Paul Skenes and Dylan Crews, who were taken 1-2 in the draft this past July.
Washington Nationals first-round draft pick Dylan Crews is already getting the call to Double-A, showing how close he truly he is to being major league ready.
Reigning "Golden Spikes Award" winner and National Champion Dylan Crews turned heads in his professional debut on Thursday in the Washington Nationals system.
After a great season at LSU that saw him win the Golden Spikes Award as the best player in college baseball, Dylan Crews was selected No. 2 overall in the draft by the Washington Nationals. He spoke about his selection.
