Foresters Picked in MLB Draft

The Foresters have had 14 players, including 10 pitchers from the always-pitching-rich Sters staff, were chosen in the first 20 rounds of the MLB Draft going on this week. Pitcher Riley Ferrell led the way in the third round, going to the Houston Astros. The starting pitcher in last year’s NBC World Series Championship Game, Brandon Quintero, went in the 16th round to the Chicago White Sox. Here’s the complete list. You remember them all playing for the Sters…now you can watch their pro baseball dreams come true. Best of luck to all these former Foresters stars.—Jim Buckley
