With the 1st pick of the 32nd Round (947th overall), the Astros select 6'2" 180lb RHP Zach Morton from Northwestern University.
Zach is a two way player, manning second when he's not pitching. He was 3-5 with a 2.86 ERA and allowed just one home run in 85 innings. He's not a swing and miss pitcher, having struck out just 46 batters this year.
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
