View Draft Report
The Phillies originally tried to sign Mezquita as an international free agent in the Dominican Republic, but Major League Baseball determined that he had to go through the draft instead. He's a 6-foot-1 lefty with a fastball that has touched 92 mph and a changeup that's more advanced than his slurvy breaking ball.
