With the 1st pick of the 38th Round (1127th overall), the Astros select 5'11" 200lb CF Ronnie Mitchell from Dallas Baptist University.
Mitchell hit .283 with four home runs and 13 steals (14 attempts) in 2013 while drawing 40 walks to 25 strikeouts.
He's described as having a long swing with some uppercut, but with the possibility of power.
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
