Top pick Cole leads USAB Draftees

17 total alums taken on the first day of MLB Draft

For the 10th time in the last 11 years, a USA Baseball alum was chosen first overall in the Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft when UCLA's pitcher Gerrit Cole was selected first overall by the Pittsburgh Pirates. Through Monday's first round and first-compensation round, 17 former members of USA Baseball National Teams were selected.

Cole has been with USA Baseball for the past two summers as part of the 2009 and the 2010 Collegiate National Teams. In 2009, he went 4-0 for Team USA with a 1.06 ERA in 34 innings to lead the red, white and blue to a gold medal at the World Baseball Challenge in British Columbia. In his 34 innings of work Cole dominated on the mound only giving up four earned runs while strike out 46 batters. In 2010, he continued his international dominance with a 0.72 ERA in his five appearances. In his gold medal start against Cuba, the dominant righty went seven strong innings giving up no runs and only walking one batter. Team USA ultimately fell to Cuba in extra innings 3-4.

The rest of the 2010 CNT was well represented Monday at the 2011 MLB Draft. Eight more of Cole's teammates heard their names called in the first round. Rounding out the 2010 CNT selections were Anthony Rendon (6th), George Springer (11th), Sonny Gray (18th), Matt Barnes (19th), Tyler Anderson (20th), Sean Gilmartin (28th), Mikie Mahtook (31st) and Jackie Bradley (40th).
